Look at the following sequence. 21, 42, 126, 504, If it is geometric sequence, choose the common ratio. If it is not geometric sequence, choose “ not geometric “

Answer:

not geometric

Explanation:

If the sequence is geometric then the common ratio r between consecutive terms should be equal


(42)/(21) = 2


(126)/(42) = 3


(504)/(126) = 4

There is no common ratio between consecutive terms

Hence the sequence is not geometric
