To determine the type of sequence, we can analyze the differences between the consecutive terms.
Let's find the differences:
- From -53 to -66: -66 - (-53) = -66 + 53 = -13
- From -66 to -79: -79 - (-66) = -79 + 66 = -13
- From -79 to -92: -92 - (-79) = -92 + 79 = -13
The difference between each consecutive term is -13. Since the difference is constant, this sequence is an **arithmetic sequence** with a common difference of -13.
In summary, the sequence is an arithmetic sequence.
