What is the difference between an arithmetic sequence and a geometric sequence?

Select all that apply:

• One is linear and one is quadratic

• One has a common difference and one has a common ratio.

• One is linear and one is exponential

• None of these are correct.

Identify the common difference.

97, 86, 75, 64, ...

• d = 8

• d = 11

• d = -11

• d = -8

Find the common ratio: 4, -16, 64, -256, ...

• r = -4
• r = 2
• r = -2
• r = 4
