WILL FAN AND MEDAL Which of the following sequences are not geometric? choose all that apply A1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21 B 1,4,9,16,25,36 C -4,-2,-1,-0.5,-0.25,-0.125 D 2,10,50,250,1250

OpenStudy (anonymous):

geometric sequence is one that decreses or increases by certain number (not on certain number) b(n)=b(1)*q^(n-1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in your choices 2 10 50 250 1250 and -4 -2 -1 -0.5 -0.25 -0.125 are geometric sequences.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So a and b are not geometric

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

geometric sequence in more easy words is :b, bn, bn^2, bn^3, ... arithmetic is : a, a+n, a+2n, a+3n, ...

Ok thanks
