Find the two missing terms of the sequence and determine if the sequence is arithmetic, geometric, or neither.

It is Arithmetic.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) A sequence is geometric when it goes from a term to the next term by  multiplying by the same number, which is called "Common ratio" ().

2) A sequence is arithmetic when it goes from a term to the next term by  adding or subtracting a common value. This value is called "Common difference" and it is denoted with .

Then, given the following sequence:

- Let's find out if it is geometric by dividing  each term by its previous one. Then:

Since there is no Common ratio, it is not a Geometic sequence.

- Now let's see if it is  arithmetic by subtracting each term by its previous one:

You can idenfity that it has a Common difference:

Therefore, it is an Arithmetic sequence.
