If a new sequence (4^2,9^2,14^2,\ldots) is formed from (4,9,14,\ldots), is the new sequence an arithmetic progression?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: No because consecutive differences are not equal
The new terms are (16,81,196), and the differences are (65,115), which are not equal. Squaring generally does not preserve an arithmetic progression.
