Match the sequence (term) with the correct type of sequence (definition).
128, 32, 8, 2 1, 3, 9, 27 5, 10, 15, 20 20, 17, 14, 11 which goes with what sequence A) Arithmetic, common difference is 5 B) Arithmetic, common difference is -3 C) Geometric, common ratio is 3 D) Geometric, common ratio is 0.25
do you know what "antithetic" and "geometric" mean?
lol "arithmetic"
yeah kinda but i dont really understand how to find them
artithmetic means you add or subtract the same number from one term to get to the next
so for example 5, 10, 15, 20 is arithmetic because you are adding the same number (namely 5) to each number to get to the next number
whereas geometric means you MULTIPLY or DIVIDE each number by the same number to get to the next one for example 128, 32, 8, 2 is geometric because you divide each number by 4 to get to the next one
i will let you figure out the other two for yourself one is arithmetic, one is geometric
thats not an option
