    This document discusses arithmetic and geometric sequences and asks the reader to identify which type of sequence 1, 8, 64, 512... is. It explains that an arithmetic sequence has a constant difference between terms, while a geometric sequence has a constant multiplier. The document then shows that while the given sequence is not arithmetic, it is geometric, as each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by 8.

    What kind of sequence is this?

    1, 8, 64, 512, ...




    arithmetic

    geometric

    both

    neither
    You answered:
    arithmetic
    remember
    In an arithmetic sequence, there is a constant difference between
    consecutive terms. This means that you can always get from one
    term to the next by adding or subtracting the same number.

    In a geometric sequence, there is a constant multiplier between
    consecutive terms. This means that you can always get from one
    term to the next by multiplying or dividing by the same number.

    The only way a sequence can be both arithmetic and geometric is if
    it repeats the same number over and over again.
    solve
    First check if the sequence is arithmetic. There is not a constant
    difference between consecutive terms. So, the sequence is not
    arithmetic.
    1, 8, 64, 512, ...

    + 7 + 56 + 448


    Next check if the sequence is geometric. There is a constant
    multiplier of 8 between consecutive terms. So, the sequence is
    geometric.
    1, 8, 64, 512, ...


    8

    8

    8


    So, the sequence is only geometric.
