Algebra-1

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

1.Arithmetic Sequence:

Calculate the differences between consecutive terms:

0 - (-2) = 2

-2 - 0 = -2

0 - (-2) = 2

The differences alternate between 2 and -2, so they are not constant. Therefore, the sequence is not arithmetic.

2.Geometric Sequence:

Calculate the ratios between consecutive terms:
