Determine if the sequence below is arithmetic or geometric and determine the common difference / ratio in simplest form. 2,5,8,... ?

Arithmetic sequence with common difference of 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic sequence:

The difference between consecutive terms is always the same, and this difference is called common difference.

Geometric sequence:

The quotient between consecutive terms is always the same, and this quotient is called common ratio.

In this question:

5 - 2 = 8 - 5 = 3

5/2 = 2.5 different of 8/5 = 1.6

This means that it is an arithmetic sequence with common difference of 3.

step-by-step explanation:

1.3

step-by-step explanation:

3x2=6   9x+6

bring down the 6 on both sides

6+6=12

12= 9x

divide by 9

12/9 =

1.3 =x
