Question

Would this be considered a geometric sequence?
5, 30, 180, 1080...

Answer 1

5 * what number = 30

Answer 2

6

Answer 3

30 times what number = 180 ?

Answer 4

by inspection, u can say its not an arithmetic series.
for geometric series, u need to check whether there is common ratio..

Answer 5

60

Answer 6

no

Answer 7

60*30 is 1800 not 180

Answer 8

lol sorry i meant 6

Answer 9

and finally

180 times ____ = 1080

what goes in the blank

Answer 10

6

Answer 11

you're multiplying each term by the same number 6 to get the next term

Answer 12

so this is definitely a geometric sequence

Answer 13

arithmetic: you add a constant term to each term to get the next term

geometric: you multiply a constant term with each term to get the next term

Answer 14

ex:

1, 5, 9, 13, 17 is arithmetic because

1+4 = 5
5+4 = 9
9+4 = 13
13+4 = 17

Answer 15

ex:

3, 6, 12, 24, 48 is geometric because

3*2 = 6
6*2 = 12
12*2 = 24
24*2 = 48
