Sort the sequences into categories. Determine which sequences are arithmetic and which are geometric. Drag each label to the correct location on the table. Each label can be used more than once. Arithmetic Sequence Geometric Sequence (90, 87, 84, 81, 78, ...) (4, 12, 36, 108, 324, ...) (8,1,1/8,1/64,1/512,...) (3, 10, 17, 24, 31,...) (1,1.4,1.8, 2.2, 2.6, ...) (3,1.5, 0.75, 0.375,...)

Given the sequences we are asked to identify whether they are geometric or arithmeti. This can be seen below.

Step-by-step explanation

For an arithmetic sequence


T_2-T_1=T_3-T_2^

For a geometric sequence


(T_2)/(T_1)=(T_3)/(T_2)

Therefore;

Answer:


\begin{gathered} Arithmetic\text{ sequence}\Rightarrow90,87,84,81,78,.. \\ Geometric\text{ sequence}\Rightarrow4,12,36,108,324,... \\ Geometric\text{ sequence}\Rightarrow8,1,1/8,1/64,1/512,... \\ Arithmetic\text{ sequence}\Rightarrow3,10,17,24,31..... \\ Arithmetic\text{ sequence}\Rightarrow1,1.4,1.8,2.2,2.6.... \\ Geometric\text{ sequence}\Rightarrow3,1.5,0.75,0.375,... \end{gathered}
