Use the image to answer the question. An arithmetic sequence is represented by the number of squares in each term. Determine the common difference of the arithmetic sequence. (1 point) Responses 6 6 14 14 2 2 4 4 Skip to navigation
The common difference of the arithmetic sequence can be calculated by determining the difference between consecutive terms.
1st term: 6 squares
2nd term: 14 squares
3rd term: 2 squares
4th term: 4 squares
To find the common difference, we look at the difference between consecutive terms:
14 - 6 = 8
2 - 14 = -12
4 - 2 = 2
Since the differences are not the same, the sequence is not arithmetic.
