Question

______ is an ordered list of terms in which the ratio between any two consecutive terms remains constant. (1 point)

○ function
○ slope
○ arithmetic sequence
○ geometric sequence

Explanation:

• A function is a relation between sets, not defined by a constant ratio of consecutive terms.
• Slope is a measure of the steepness of a line, unrelated to a sequence with a constant ratio.
• An arithmetic sequence has a constant difference between consecutive terms, not a constant ratio.
• A geometric sequence is defined as an ordered list of terms where the ratio between any two consecutive terms (the common ratio) is constant.

Answer:

D. Geometric Sequence
