Follow the instructions for each section. Show all your work when necessary.
1. For the sequence 3, 7, 11, 15, ..., identify the common difference or common ratio.
2. Is the sequence 2, 6, 18, 54, ... arithmetic or geometric? Explain your reasoning.
1. The graph of an arithmetic sequence forms a straight line.
True
False
2. The graph of a geometric sequence forms a curve.
True
False
3. Graph the first 5 terms of the arithmetic sequence with a₁ = 2 and common difference d = 3.
4. Graph the first 4 terms of the geometric sequence with a₁ = 1 and common ratio r = 2.
5. Which type of sequence will always have a graph that passes through the origin (0,0) if the first term is 0?
Arithmetic sequence
Geometric sequence
Both arithmetic and geometric sequences
Neither
6. The domain of a sequence is always the set of numbers.
7. When graphing a sequence, the term number (n) is plotted on the axis and the term value (a_n) is plotted on the axis.
