If (a_n) is an AP with common difference (4) and (b_n=2a_n-3), what is the common difference of (b_n)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: (8)
Multiplying terms by (2) multiplies the difference by (2), so it becomes (8). In exams, adding or subtracting a constant does not change the difference, but multiplication does.
