Is this sequence arithmetic, geometric, or neither? 1, 0, 1 , 4...
To determine if the sequence is arithmetic, geometric, or neither:
1.Arithmetic Sequence:
Calculate the differences between consecutive terms:
0 - 1 = -1
1 - 0 = 1
4 - 1 = 3
The differences are -1, 1, 3, which are not constant. Therefore, the sequence is not arithmetic.
2.Geometric Sequence:
Calculate the ratios between consecutive terms:
