Which one of the following is a geometric sequence?

The geometric sequence among following is:

         Option: B

         8 , 4 , 2 , 1 , 1/2 , 1/4 ,.....

Geometric sequence--

A sequence is said to be a geometric sequence if each of the number in the sequence is a constant multiple of the preceding term in the sequence.

This constant multiple is known as the common ratio (r)

i.e. the sequence is given by:

a,ar,ar²,ar³,.....

A)

0,1,2,3,......

It is a arithmetic sequence and not a geometric sequence .

Since, each of the term is increasing by 1 as compared to the preceding term of the sequence.

B)

8,4,2,1,1/2,1/4,.....

It is a geometric sequence.

Since, each term of the sequence is a constant multiple of 1/2 of the preceding term of the sequence.

i.e. 8×(1/2)=4

4×(1/2)=2

2×(1/2)=1

1×(1/2)=1/2

and so on.

i.e. the common ratio is: 1/2

C)

-7,10,23,36,.....

This is not a geometric sequence.

Since,

but

D)

2,-3,9/2,-18/4

Here

but

Hence, it is not a geometric sequence.

the aswere is the one with all 8's and the second one is with the 10,8 and 6
