Classify each sequence as arithmetic, geometric or neither

Mathematics

Karolina [17]3 years ago

Answer:

Geometric sequence = ⁵/9, ⁵/3, 5, 15, 45. . .

Arithmetic sequence = 16, 11, 6, 1, -4 . . .

Step-by-step explanation:

A geometric sequence is a sequence of numbers, in which every number in the sequence after the first term is multiplied by a common ratio, which gives us the next term. The common ratio is the ratio of a term to the term before it.

On the other hand, an arithmetic sequence is a sequence of number have a common difference between each consecutive terms. This common difference is gotten by subtracting a term from the term before it.

Now let's examine each sequence given:

==>16, 11, 6, 1, -4 . . .

11 - 16 = -5

6 - 11 = -5

1 - 6 = -5

-4 - 1 = -5

This is an arithmetic sequence. The commons difference "-5" is the same

==>⁵/9, ⁵/3, 5, 15, 45. . .

⁵/3 ÷ ⁵/9 = ⁵/3 × ⁹/5 = ⁹/3 = 3

5 ÷ ⁵/3 = ⁵ × ⅗ = 3

15 ÷ 5 = 3

45 ÷ 15 = 3

The common ratio "3" is the same. This is a geometric sequence.

A section representing 20% of a circle graph has an angle measure of 20°.
gulaghasi [49]
We need five sections of 20% to get 100%.

So all we need to do is times 20 degrees by 5.

20 x 5 = 100

So your answer is 100 degrees.

Hope this helped. Have a great day!
