Quarter 1 Lesson 6 Differentiate Geometric and Arithmetic Sequence

An arithmetic sequence is a sequence where each term is obtained by adding a constant to the previous term, called the common difference. A geometric sequence is a sequence where each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by a constant, called the common ratio. The document provides examples of sequences and determines whether they are arithmetic or geometric by calculating the common difference or ratio. It aims to help students understand the difference between arithmetic and geometric sequences.

Arithmetic Sequence
is a sequence where every term after the first term is
obtained by adding a constant.
Common difference
 

is a constant number added to each term of an arithmetic


sequence to obtain the next term of the sequence.
Geometric Sequence
is a sequence where each term after the first is obtained
by multiplying the preceding term by a nonzero constant
called the common ratio
Common ratio
 

is a constant multiplied to each term of a h
