\[d\]
.Suppose we have two arithmetic sequences
\[A_1 :a_1, a_1+d_1 , a_1+2d_1 ,..., a_1+nd_1,...\]
\[A_2 :a_2, a_2+d_2 , a_2+2d_2 ,..., a_2+nd_2,...\]
The zero sequence is an arithmetic sequence with first term
\[a=0\]
and common difference \[d=0\]
.\[\begin{equation} \begin{aligned} & \alpha (a_1, a_1+d_1 , a_1+2d_1 ,..., a_1+nd_1,...) \\ &+ \beta (a_2, a_2+d_2 , a_2+2d_2 ,..., a_2+nd_2,...) \\ &= (\alpha a_1 + \beta a_2 ), (\alpha a_1 + \beta a_2 )+ (\alpha d_1 + \beta d_2 ),(\alpha a_1 + \beta a_2 ) \\ &+ 2(\alpha d_1 + \beta d_2 ) ,...,(\alpha a_1 + \beta a_2 )+ n(\alpha d_1 + \beta d_2 ),... \end{aligned} \end{equation}\]
which is an arithmetic sequence with first term
\[\alpha a_1 + \beta a_2\]
and common difference \[\alpha d_1 + \beta d_2\]
.Hence the set of arithmetic sequences forms a vector space.
