Determine if the sequences are arithmetic, geometric, or neither. If yes, give common difference of arithmetic sequence or common ratio of geometric sequence. 10, 12, 13.1, 15.641
An arithmetic sequence goes from one term to the next by always adding (or subtracting) the same value. For instance, 2, 5, 8, 11, 14,... and 7, 3, –1, –5,... are arithmetic, since you add 3 and subtract 4, respectively, at each step. A geometric sequence goes from one term to the next by always multiplying (or dividing) by the same value. So 1, 2, 4, 8, 16,... and 81, 27, 9, 3, 1, 1/3,... are geometric, since you multiply by 2 and divide by 3, respectively, at each step.
therfore it is neither
because it does not follow a pattern
Thank you soooo much!
