This video tutorial covers the identification and analysis of arithmetic and geometric sequences. It explains how to determine if a sequence is arithmetic by checking for a constant difference and provides examples. The video also introduces the formula for finding any term in an arithmetic sequence using the common difference and zero term. Similarly, it explains geometric sequences, focusing on the common ratio, and demonstrates how to use the geometric sequence formula to find specific terms.

What defines an arithmetic sequence?

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

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

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

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