Solution for second question:
An arithmetic sequence is a sequence with the difference between two consecutive terms constant. The difference is called the common difference.
Arithmetic formula: t(n) = t(1) + (n - 1)d
t(n) is the nth term, t(1) is the first term, and d is the common difference.
A geometric sequence is a sequence with the ratio between two consecutive terms constant. This ratio is called the common ratio.
Geometric formula: t(n) = t(1) . r(n - 1)
t(n) is the nth term, t(1) is the first term, and r is the common ratio.
Here is the answer for above questions:
(a) 4, 1, 1, 4,...
In this sequence, neither the difference between two consecutive terms is constant nor the ratio between the two consecutive terms is constant.
Hence, the answer is : Neither
(b) 256, 64, 16, 4,...
In this sequence, common ratio (r)= 1/4 (divide every term by the previous term)
Hence, the answer is : Geometric
(c) 7, 9, 11, 13,...
In this question, common difference (d) = 2
d = t(n) - t(n - 1), where t(n) is the last term in the sequence, and t(n - 1) is the previous term in the sequence.
Hence, the answer is : Arithmetic
