It is called arithmetico-geometric sequence.
I have added a link with some nice information about them.

Is a geometric progression a quadratic sequence?
A geometric sequence is : a•r^n while a quadratic sequence is a• n^2 + b•n + c So the answer is no, unless we are talking about an infinite sequence of zeros which strictly speaking is both a geometric and a quadratic sequence.
What are two similarities between the base five arithmetic and clock five arithmetic?
base five and clock arithmetic both use whole numbers. and they both use place value to calculate.
If you roll 2 4 faced dice how many outcomes are there?
The question is underspecified since the answer depends on the numbers on the dice. If all the numbers on both the dice are the same, there is clearly only one outcome. If the dice have 4 different numbers, then there can be 16 different outcomes. If the numbers on each die are 1,2,3 and 4 (or any four numbers in arithmetic sequence) there will be 7 outcomes.
Is the geometric mean the same as the mean or average of two numbers?
Not usually. Given numbers a and b, the mean or average is (a + b)/2 but the geometric mean is sq rt (a X b). If both a and b equal 1, the results are the same.
A sequence formed by subtracting each term of sequence from next term is?
If the first two numbers are 0, 1 or -1 (not both zero) then you get an alternating Fibonacci sequence.
Is -4 -8 -16 -32 arithmetic geometric both or neither?
It is a geometric sequence.
Can a sequence of numbers be both geometric and arithmetic?
Yes, it can both arithmetic and geometric.The formula for an arithmetic sequence is: a(n)=a(1)+d(n-1)The formula for a geometric sequence is: a(n)=a(1)*r^(n-1)Now, when d is zero and r is one, a sequence is both geometric and arithmetic. This is because it becomes a(n)=a(1)1 =a(1). Note that a(n) is often written anIt can easily observed that this makes the sequence a constant.Example:a(1)=a(2)=(i) for i= 3,4,5...if a(1)=3 then for a geometric sequence a(n)=3+0(n-1)=3,3,3,3,3,3,3and the geometric sequence a(n)=3r0 =3 also so the sequence is 3,3,3,3...In fact, we could do this for any constant sequence such as 1,1,1,1,1,1,1...or e,e,e,e,e,e,e,e...In general, let k be a constant, the sequence an =a1 (r)1 (n-1)(0) with a1 =kis the constant sequence k, k, k,... and is both geometric and arithmetic.
What are four numbers that make both an arithmetic and geometric series?
1,2,4, and 8.
What is geometric and arithmetic?
They are both adjectives. The first relates to geometry and the second to arithmetic.
Properties and limitations of geometric mean?
In a given sequence, there are two possible means calculatable: Arithmetic Mean, and Geometric Mean. The arithmetic mean, as we all know, is calculated from the sum of all the numbers divided by how many numbers there are: Sumn/n. The Geometric sum is calculated by multiplying all the numbers within the sequence together and taking the nth root of this value: (Productn)(1/n).In a geometric series, N(i)= a(ri), the geometric mean is found to be a(rn-1), where n is the number of elements within the series. this decreases or increases exponentially depending on the r value. If r1, increasing.Limitation Of Geometric Mean are:-1) Geometric mean cannot be computed when there are both negative and positive values in a series or more observations are having zero value.2)Compared to Arithmetic Mean this average is more difficult to compute and interpret.-Iwin
How do you get the geometric mean of two numbers?
you add both of the two numbers together then divide the added number by the quantities of the items, in this case Two numbers and get the result. * * * * * The above is the arithmetic mean, which is quite different from the geometric mean. To get the geometric mean of n positive numbers, you multiply (not add) them together and take the nth root of the answer.
Is a geometric progression a quadratic sequence?
A geometric sequence is : a•r^n while a quadratic sequence is a• n^2 + b•n + c So the answer is no, unless we are talking about an infinite sequence of zeros which strictly speaking is both a geometric and a quadratic sequence.

Difference between AP series GPs reis?
In an arithmetic progression (AP), each term is obtained by adding a constant value to the previous term. In a geometric progression (GP), each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by a constant value. An AP will have a common difference between consecutive terms, while a GP will have a common ratio between consecutive terms.

How do you calculate the geometric mean?
The geometric mean, by definition, is the nth root of the product of the n units in a data set. For example, the geometric mean of 5, 7, 2, 1 is (5x7x2x1)1/4 = 2.893 Alternatively, if you log transform each of the individual units the geometric will be the exponential of the arithmetic mean of these log-transformed values. So, reusing the example above, exp[ ( ln(5)+ln(7)+ln(2)+ln(1) ) / 4 ] = 2.893 I agree with the above BUT... with two numbers, a geometric mean is the square root of the product (result of multiplication) of the two numbers while the arithmetic mean is half of the sum of the two numbers. For example, 2 and 8. The geometric mean is 2*8 = 16, sqrt(16) = 4. The arithmetic mean is (2+8)/2 = 5. Both give a number somewhere between those that contribute AND when the numbers are the same, both will agree. For 6 and 6, sqrt(36) = 6, 12/2 = 6. In other cases, they have different properties which make them advantageous in different places. BUT you should think of the two has having the same goal and being very similar in form (just turning addition to multiplication and multiplication to exponentiation). The earlier answer is better because it shows the generalization beyond two numbers (that is, when you have four numbers, you will multiply them all together and take the 4th root, rather than the square root), I added this to draw the similarity to a conventional mean and give an example that you could follow in your head. (Just wondering, why is it useful to show that for exponents multiplication becomes addition? -- I am not following the relevance to a geometric mean.)
