@hartnn @Diyadiya @Directrix @cwrw238 @SithsAndGiggles @Kainui Is this B?

kainui · Answer

What is an arithmetic and geometric sequence?

anonymous · Answer

An arithmetic sequence has a constant difference while a geometric sequence has a constant ratio.

anonymous · Answer

So is it B? @Kainui

@jigglypuff314 @TheSmartOne @Abhisar @aaronq @DanJS Is the answer B?

academicgurusinc · Answer

yes B is correct because Geometric sequence is a sequence of numbers where each term can by found multiplying the previous term by a constant, non-zero number ex, 3, 9, 27, 81

Arithmetic sequence is a sequence of numbers for which the difference is constant.  ex.  2, 4, 6, 8.  Therefore A cannot be true
