Two common types of mathematical sequences are arithmetic sequences and geometric sequences. An arithmetic sequence has a constant difference between each consecutive pair of terms. A geometric sequence has a constant ratio between each pair of consecutive terms. This would create the effect of a constant multiplier.

hoped that helped... good day
