Question

Mark in which group there is no property.

Video Solution

Solution Steps

00:00 Mark the sequence that is not a series
00:03 Let's find the pattern in each sequence
00:07 In this sequence the pattern is to add 1
00:12 In this sequence the pattern is to subtract 1
00:31 We notice that in this sequence the pattern is not constant
00:38 And in this sequence the pattern is to add 10
00:44 And this is the solution to the question

Step-by-Step Solution

To determine which sequence has no consistent pattern or property, we will examine each of the given sequences for an arithmetic progression. An arithmetic progression is defined by a sequence in which each term after the first is obtained by adding a constant difference to the previous term.

  • Option 1: 6,5,4,3,2,16, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 - The differences are 1,1,1,1,1-1, -1, -1, -1, -1. This follows an arithmetic progression with a common difference of 1-1.
  • Option 2: 2,1,0,1,2,32, 1, 0, 1, 2, 3 - The differences are 1,1,+1,+1,+1-1, -1, +1, +1, +1. The differences are inconsistent across the entire sequence, suggesting this does not follow a simple arithmetic progression.
  • Option 3: 55,45,35,30,20,055, 45, 35, 30, 20, 0 - The differences are 10,10,5,10,20-10, -10, -5, -10, -20. The differences are inconsistent, indicating no uniform arithmetic progression property is present throughout.
  • Option 4: 60,50,40,30,20,1060, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10 - The differences are 10,10,10,10,10-10, -10, -10, -10, -10. This sequence follows an arithmetic progression with a constant difference of 10-10.

From this analysis, Option 3 does not follow a consistent arithmetic progression or property, as the differences between terms are inconsistent.

Therefore, the sequence in which there is no property is 55,45,35,30,20,055, 45, 35, 30, 20, 0.

Answer

55 , 45 , 35 , 30 , 20 , 0
