In this lesson, you will learn how to explain the difference between an arithmetic and a geometric sequence. You will determine arithmetic sequences that will help you solve real-world problems, such as how much fuel is left in your vehicle or how fast the money in your bank account is increasing.
When you finish this lesson, you will be able to:
- Explain what it means for a sequence to be arithmetic or geometric.
Here are the activities that will help you reach those goals:
