The correct Answer is:
To determine if the sequence 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, ... is an arithmetic progression (A.P.), we need to check if the difference between consecutive terms is constant. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Terms**: The sequence given is 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, ... 2. **Calculate the Differences**: - The first term (a1) = 5 - The second term (a2) = 5 - The difference between the first and second term: \[ a2 - a1 = 5 - 5 = 0 \] - The third term (a3) = 5 - The difference between the second and third term: \[ a3 - a2 = 5 - 5 = 0 \] - The fourth term (a4) = 5 - The difference between the third and fourth term: \[ a4 - a3 = 5 - 5 = 0 \] 3. **Check Consistency of Differences**: - The differences calculated are: - Between a1 and a2: 0 - Between a2 and a3: 0 - Between a3 and a4: 0 - All differences are equal to 0. 4. **Conclusion**: Since the difference between each consecutive term is the same (0), we can conclude that the sequence is an arithmetic progression (A.P.). ### Final Answer: The sequence 5, 5, 5, 5, ... is an arithmetic progression (A.P.). ---
