Classify each sequence:1/3, 2/3, 4/3, 8/3,...

a. arithmetic
b. geometric
c. neither

  b.  geometric

Step-by-step explanation:

The terms don't have a common difference, but they do have a common ratio: 2. A sequence in which terms have a common ratio is a geometric sequence.

___

Differences are ...

  2/3 -1/3 = 1/3

  4/3 -2/3 = 2/3 . . . . not the same

Ratios are ...

  (2/3)/(1/3) = 2

  (4/3)/(2/3) = 2

  (8/3)/(4/3) = 2 . . . . ratios are common between pairs of terms

b. Geometric

Step-by-step explanation:

(1/3)×2 = (2/3)

(2/3)×2 = 4/3

(4/3)×2 = 8/3

2 is the common ratio

(f - g)(x) = 5x^3 - 3

step-by-step explanation:

rearrange these functions vertically, with like terms in separate columns:

f(x) = 5x^3 - 2

g(x) =         +1

now subtract, column by column:

(f - g)(x) = 5x^3 - 3

180-142=38 for the acute angle next to the entry

90+38=128

180-128=52

a=52
