Question

Classify each sequence as arithmetic, geometric or neither 65,52,39,26,13

Answer 1

arithmetic sequence

Explanation:

An arithmetic sequence has a common difference d between consecutive terms

52 - 65 = - 13

39 - 52 = - 13

26 - 39 = - 13

13 - 26 = - 13

since consecutive terms have common ratio d = - 13

then the sequence is arithmetic.
