An ordered list of terms is a [     ]; adding its terms produces a series.

A

d=−4d=-4d=−4

B

For first term aaa and common difference ddd, un=a+(n−1)du_n=a+(n-1)dun​=a+(n−1)d. The last included term is l=a+(n−1)d\boxed{l=a+(n-1)d}l=a+(n−1)d​.

C

An ordered list of terms is a sequence; adding its terms produces a series.

D
