Algebra-1

To determine if the sequence is arithmetic, geometric, or neither:

1.Arithmetic Sequence:

Calculate the differences between consecutive terms:

-27 - 9 = -36

81 - (-27) = 108

-243 - 81 = -324

The differences are not constant, so the sequence is not arithmetic.

2.Geometric Sequence:

Calculate the ratios between consecutive terms:
