Answer

Common difference = -4.5


Explanation.

An arithmetic sequence is a sequence in which the next term is found by adding a constant to the current term. This constant is called the common difference.

If a, b, c, d, e, ….is an arithmetic sequence, then the common difference will be,

Common difference = b-a=c-b=d-c=e-d…..

Now the question above common difference is;

Common difference = (-22.5)-(-14)=-4.5
