We find that, for the given Arithmetic Sequence (A.S.),
The First Term =a=31, &, the Common Difference
d = 24 - 31 = 17 - 24 = ... = - 7
Now, we know that, for such an A.S., T n = a + d ( n - 1 )
T n = 31 - 7 ( n - 1 ) = 38 - 7 n
Hence, the reqd. next four terms are,
T 4 = 38 - 7 ( 4 ) = 10 , &, similarly, T 5 = 3 , T 6 = - 4 , T 7 = - 11
