Arithmetic sequences have a common difference between consecutive terms.
Geometric sequences have a common ratio between consecutive terms.
Let's compute the differences and ratios between consecutive terms:
Differences:

Ratios:

So, as you can see, the differences between consecutive terms are constant, whereas ratios vary.
So, this is an arithmetic sequence.
Answer:
6 swimmers in the first heat can be arranged in 1716 different ways.
Step-by-step explanation:
A swim meet has 13 contestants signed up. To calculate the arrangement of first 6 swimmers in first heat we will use combinations because order doesn't matter.
So to select 6 swimmers out of 13 contestants number of different ways
= 
= 
= 
= 
= 
= 1716
Therefore, 6 swimmers in the first heat can be arranged in 1716 different ways.

8. -18/6 = -3
Answer:
Part A:
-Minimum: 10
-Q1: 17.5
-Median: 30
-Q3: 42.5
-Maximum: 50
Step-by-step explanation:
Part B: IQR= 25
This shows that the data varies for 25 different numbers. That HALF of the data is between 25 numbers.
Part C: Using a box-and-whisker plot you can interpret the different values. Minimum is the first dot (10), connected to the first line (Q1 which is 17.5), connected by a box to the median (30), connected by a box to the third line (Q3 which is 42.5), connected to the last dot which is the maximum (50). And IQR is Q3-Q1, so 42.5-17.5 which is 25.
