Which answer describes the type of sequence?

Mathematics
1 answer:
jeyben [28]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The sequence is a geometric sequence.


Step-by-step explanation:


The given sequence is

\frac{1}{6},\frac{1}{2},\frac{3}{2},\frac{9}{2},...



We examine to see whether there is a common difference or a common ratio.


We first check for a common difference by subtracting the subsequent terms.


\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{6}=\frac{2}{3}



\frac{3}{2}-\frac{1}{2}=1


The two differences are not equal.


Hence the sequence is not arithmetic.




We now look out for a common ratio.


\frac{1}{2}\div \frac{1}{6}=3



\frac{3}{2}\div \frac{1}{2}=3




\frac{9}{2}\div \frac{3}{2}=3



Since there is a common ratio of 3, the sequence is geometric.

Use the table of values below to select the correct statement.
quester [9]

Answer:

Linear function with rate of change/growth = 2.5, which agrees with the fourth statement listed in the answers options.

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that both columns of reported x and y values are increasing.

Then examine how the given x-values  increase:

-2, 2, 6, 10, 14  (in steps of 4 units)

and how their corresponding y-values increase:

-2, 8, 18, 28, 38  (in steps of 10 units)

therefore, if we do the rate of change for any pair (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2), we get the following constant rate of change:

\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} = \frac{10}{4} =2.5

Given that this relationship is valid for any pair of (x,y) values. we conclude that the rate of increase is constant, and therefore we are in the presence of a linear function, whose rate of change is 2.5
