2, 6, 10, 15, ...

O Arithmetic
O Geometric
O Neither


Given:

The sequence is:

2, 6, 10, 15,...

To find:

Whether the given sequence is Arithmetic, Geometric, Neither.

Solution:

We have,

2, 6, 10, 15,...

Different between consecutive terms are:

Since , therefore the given sequence has no common difference. It means it is not an arithmetic sequence.

Ratio of consecutive terms are:

Since , therefore the given sequence has no common ratio. It means it is not a geometric sequence.

Since the given sequence is neither arithmetic nor geometric, therefore the correct option is C.

answer: solve 5\cdot 2^x=2405⋅2  

x

=2405, dot, 2, start superscript, x, end superscript, equals, 240.

solution

to solve for xxx, we must first isolate the exponential part. to do this, divide both sides by 555 as shown below. we do not multiply the 555 and the 222 as this goes against the order of operations!

\begin{aligned} 5\cdot 2^x& =240 2^x& =48 \\ \end{aligned}  

5⋅2  

x

x

=240

=48
