Algebra-1

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

1.Arithmetic Sequence:

Calculate the differences between consecutive terms:

-8 - 6 = -14

10 - (-8) = 18

-12 - 10 = -22

The differences are -14, 18, -22, which are not constant. Therefore, the sequence is not arithmetic.

2.Geometric Sequence:

Calculate the ratios between consecutive terms:
