Answer to Problem 24E
Neither an arithmetic nor geometric sequence.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The data set
Concept used:
A sequence is a set of numbers called terms arranged in some particular order
An airthmatic sequence is a sequence is a sequence with the difference between two consecutive terms constant.
Calculation:
The data set
An arithmetic sequence has a common difference between successive terms
So, this sequence is no common difference
A geometric sequence has a common ratio between successive terms
So, this sequence is no common ratio
Therefore, neither an arithmetic nor geometric sequence.
