Is this sequence arithmetic, geometric, or neither? 3, 6, 12, 24, …
To determine if the sequence is arithmetic, geometric, or neither:
1.Arithmetic Sequence:
Calculate the differences between consecutive terms:
6 - 3 = 3
12 - 6 = 6
24 - 12 = 12
The differences are not constant, so the sequence is not arithmetic.
2.Geometric Sequence:
Calculate the ratios between consecutive terms:
