Is this sequence arithmetic, geometric, or neither? 100, 50, 25, 12.5, …
To determine if the sequence is arithmetic, geometric, or neither:
1.Arithmetic Sequence:
Calculate the differences between consecutive terms:
50 - 100 = -50
25 - 50 = -25
12.5 - 25 = -12.5
The differences are not constant, so the sequence is not arithmetic.
2.Geometric Sequence:
Calculate the ratios between consecutive terms:
