Determine if -1, 1, 4, 8 is a geometric sequence

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

ANSWER

No, because there is no common ratio

EXPLANATION

The given sequence is

-1, 1, 4, 8

If this sequence is geometric, then there should be a common ratio among the consecutive terms.

$\frac{1}{ - 1} \ne \frac{4}{1} \ne \frac{8}{4}$

Hence the sequence

-1, 1, 4, 8

is not a geometric sequence.
