Since 4,1,-2,-5 are in Arithmetic Series
because the difference of second and first= -3,
difference of third and second =-3
difference of fourth and third = -3 and so on
Therefore next three terms will be -8,-11,-14

How about 4, 1, -2, -5, 6, 3, -7?

The pairs of numbers go up by one, reverse order and negate each time. So 4, 1, gives

5, 2 (add one)
2, 5 (reverse order)
-2, -5 (negate)

Or it could be 4, 1, -2, -5, 3, 6, -7, -8, using all different digits.

Giving four terms of a series certainly does not define what the other terms of the series are.

It is an Arithmetic progression where 4 is the first digit and -3 is the common difference.So, the next three numbers will be
-8, -11, -14

the difference in the first number and the second number is -3 so u must subtract 3 in all
to get the next 3 numbers
ull get
4, -1, -2, -5, -8, -11, -14, -17,-20...

4-3=1
1-3=-2
-2-3=-5
Simply substract 3 from the previous number.
Solution:
-5-3=-8
-8-3=-11
-11-3=-14
So, the next 3 numbers are -8, -11 & -14.

the pattern is -3

4 - 3 = 1
1 - 3 = -2
-2 - 3 = -5
-5 - 3 = -8
-8 - 3 = -11
-11 - 3 = -14

ANS : -8, -11, -14

Whatever you want them to be. I quite like the idea of

4,1,-2,-5,-2,1,4

or maybe

4,1,-2,-5,-126.3,6303.3,-2

So which is correct, is 4,1,-2,-5,-8,-11,-14 correct?? Maybe, its probable, just as probable as the numbers i picked :P

-8, -11, -14

solution:
subtract 3 from every number :
4 -3 = 1
1 - 3 = - 2
.....
-5 - 3 = - (5 + 3) = - 8
...... etc
