If (d=4) and the first term is (1), what will be the second term?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: 5
In an arithmetic progression, the second term is found by adding the common difference to the first term: second term = first term + d = 1 + 4 = 5. Therefore, 5 is correct. Option 4 is only the common difference, not the second term. Exam tip: In an AP, the difference between consecutive terms is always d.
