State If This Is Geometric Or Not:, 100,-50,25,25/2
State if this is geometric or not:
100,-50,25,25/2
Answer: the sequence is a not geometric sequence
Step-by-step explanation:
A geometric sequence can be determined if it has a constant number being multiplied to the next terms of the sequence or the common ratio.
At can be determined by dividing the preceedinging term to the previous term
-50÷100= -1/2
25÷ (-50)= -1/2
25/2÷25= 1/2
Since the there was no common ratio in the sequence because of the differences in the qoutient, it is not a geometric sequence.
