How do you find the next term in a geometric sequence?

Back

To find the next term in a geometric sequence, multiply the previous term by the common ratio.

Front

How do you find the next term in an arithmetic sequence?

Back

To find the next term in an arithmetic sequence, add the common difference to the previous term.

Front

What is a common difference in an arithmetic sequence?

Back

The common difference is the constant amount that is added to each term to get the next term in an arithmetic sequence.

Front

What is a common ratio in a geometric sequence?

Back

The common ratio is the constant factor by which each term is multiplied to get the next term in a geometric sequence.
