Answer: 19.

  • A 17
  • B 19
  • C 21
  • D 23

Correct answer: B. 19

Explanation: a = 3, d = 4. a<sub>5</sub> = 3 + 4(5-1) = 3 + 16 = 19.

Each bar grows by the common difference d=3a1=2a2=5a3=8a4=11d=3

Bar heights for AP 2, 5, 8, 11 with the common difference d=3 marked between consecutive terms.
