Answer:

Explanation:

The characteristic of geometric sequences is that any term divided by the previous term is a constant, called the common ratio. Each term in this sequence is 2 times the previous term. In this case the sequence is an=2(2)^x.

If it were an arithmetic sequence any term subtracted by the previous term would be constant, called the common difference.
