In an arithmetic progression the difference between each term (except the first) and the one before is a constant. In a geometric progression, their ratio is a constant. That is, Arithmetic progression U(n) - U(n-1) = d, where d, the common difference, is a constant and n = 2, 3, 4, ... Equivalently, U(n) = U(n-1) + d = U(1) + (n-1)*d Geometric progression U(n) / U(n-1) = r, where r, the common ratio is a non-zero constant and n = 2, 3, 4, ... Equivalently, U(n) = U(n-1)*r = U(1)*r^(n-1).

Is sequence 3 9 91 6561 A arithmetic B geometric or c neither?
To check whether it is an arithmetic sequence, verify whether the difference between two consecutive numbers is always the same.To check whether it is a geometric sequence, verify whether the ratio between two consecutive numbers is always the same.
