Exploring Arithmetic and Geometric Sequences

What is an arithmetic sequence?

• A sequence where each term is subtracted by a constant.

• A sequence where each term is multiplied by a constant.

• A sequence where each term is added by a constant.

• A sequence where each term is divided by a constant.
