Step 1. Given Information.

Given arithmetic sequence is described by a1=12,d=鈭�3

02

Step 2. Calculation.

In an arithmetic sequence a term can be obtained by adding the common difference to the previous term.

Here the first term is a1=12

And, the common difference is d=鈭�3.

The second term in the arithmetic sequence is:

a2=a1+da2=12鈭�3a2=9

The third term in the arithmetic sequence is:

a3=a2+da3=9鈭�3a3=6

The fourth term in the arithmetic sequence is:

a4=a3+da4=6鈭�3a4=3

The fifth term in the arithmetic sequence is:

a5=a4+da5=3鈭�3a5=0

03

Step 3. Conclusion.

Hence, the first five terms of the arithmetic sequence described are 12, 9, 6, 3, 0.
