Question

ANSWER ASAP PLEASE! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST, RATING, AND THANKS!

Answer 1

she is incorrect the numbers listed above is neither arithmetic or geometric its quadratic sequence . its addition being shown

2+1=3

3+2=5

5+3=8

8+4=12

hope i broke it down enough for you're understanding

Answer 2

She is incorrect. The sequence is neither arithmetic nor geometric.

Why isn't it arithmetic? Because the distance from 2 to 3 is different from 3 to 5

we add 1 to go from 2 to 3

we add 2 to go from 3 to 5

Put another way,

3-2 = 1

5-3 = 2

This shows that there is no common difference. Therefore this sequence isn't arithmetic

----------------------------------

There is no common ratio as well. Pick any term and divide by its previous term

(term2)/(term1) = 3/2 = 1.5

(term3)/(term2) = 5/3 = 1.67

(term4)/(term3) = 8/5 = 1.6

The results are close, but not the exact same every time. The inconsistent results above show there isn't any common ratio. This shows us we don't have a geometric sequence.

Note: this sequence is very close to a subset of the Fibonacci sequence (if the 12 was 13, then it would work perfect)
