9-5 Solving Quadratic Equations by Using the Quadratic Formula
randomly spread out.
Determine whether each sequence is

72. 20, 25, 30, ...
SOLUTION:  
Check the difference and ratio between terms. 
 
– 20 = 5
25
30 – 25 = 5
 
There is a common difference of 5 between the
terms. The sequence is arithmetic.
74. 200, 350, 650, …
SOLUTION:  
Check the difference and ratio between terms. 
 
– 200 = 150
350
650 – 350 = 200
 
There is no common difference between the terms. 
 
 
There is no common ratio. This is neither an
arithmetic nor geometric sequence. 
 
 
76. 2, 4, 16, …
SOLUTION:  
Check the difference and ratio between terms. 
 
– 2 = 2
4
16 – 4 = 12
 
There is no common difference between the terms.
