Question

1. Which represents the type of sequence: -99, -96, -92, -87, -81, …?

Answer 1

So here are the answers for the given questions above:
1. Based on the given values above, the correct answer would be option B. NEITHER ARITHMETIC NOR GEOMETRIC. Why? When we say arithmetic sequence, the values should have a common difference which remains constant all throughout the sequence, and this sequence does not qualify. On the other hand, a geometric sequence should have a common ratio, and these numbers do not have one.
2. The correct answer for this problem would be option C. 121,520.
Based on the given values above, the values have a common ratio of 1.1. So what we are going to do is just to multiply 1.1 each time and by 2016, we will get 121,520.
Hope these answers help.
