Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we need to determine if there's a consistent pattern or rule in the sequence 1,2,3,4,5,61, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

Let's proceed step by step:

  • Step 1: Analyze the given sequence
    The sequence is 1,2,3,4,5,61, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
  • Step 2: Check for a common difference
    Calculate the difference between each consecutive pair of numbers:

21=12 - 1 = 1
32=13 - 2 = 1
43=14 - 3 = 1
54=15 - 4 = 1
65=16 - 5 = 1

From the calculations above, we observe that the difference between each consecutive term is +1+1.

Conclusion: The sequence is an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of +1+1.

Therefore, the correct choice is +1 +1 .

Answer

+1 +1
