The image provided shows a sequence of numbers, and the question asks whether the sequence is arithmetic or geometric. The sequence in the image is:

$2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64$

To determine whether the sequence is arithmetic or geometric:

1. Arithmetic Sequence: A sequence is arithmetic if the difference between consecutive terms is constant. In other words, $a_{n+1} - a_n = d$ where $d$ is a constant.

2. Geometric Sequence: A sequence is geometric if the ratio between consecutive terms is constant. In other words, $\frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n} = r$ where $r$ is a constant.

Checking the Sequence:

• The difference between consecutive terms:

  • $4 - 2 = 2$
  • $8 - 4 = 4$
  • $16 - 8 = 8$
  • $32 - 16 = 16$
  • $64 - 32 = 32$

  Since the differences are not constant, the sequence is not arithmetic.

• The ratio between consecutive terms:

  • $\frac{4}{2} = 2$
  • $\frac{8}{4} = 2$
  • $\frac{16}{8} = 2$
  • $\frac{32}{16} = 2$
  • $\frac{64}{32} = 2$

  Since the ratio is constant, the sequence is geometric with a common ratio $r = 2$.

Conclusion: The sequence is geometric.
