Question

If a sequence of values follows a pattern of multiplying a fixed amount times each term to arrive at the following term, it is called a:

• A. geometric sequence
• B. arithmetic sequence
• C. geometric series
• D. none of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A geometric sequence

$3,3^2,3^3,3^4,....(r=3)$

In a sequence if a fixed amount/constant is multiplied to each term to get the successive term the sequence is called geometric sequence.

Here $3$ is the constant which gets multiplied to each term to obtain the successive term.
