2. Which is larger?
The common ratio, r, in a geometric sequence whose second term is
24 and whose fifth term is 1536
or
The common difference, d , in an arithmetic sequence whose fourth
term is 16 and whose seventh term is 31.

Answer: The common ratio, r

Step-by-step explanation: r^2 = 1536/24... r^2 = 64... Square root both sides to get... r = 8

7th term - 4th term = 3

31 - 16 = 15.... 15/3 = 5... so d = 5
