Question

A baker is putting cupcakes on trays to cool. She put 185 cupcakes on the first tray, 185 cupcakes on the second tray, 185 cupcakes on the third tray, and 185 cupcakes on the fourth tray. What kind of sequence is this?

Answer 1

The sequence described is an **arithmetic sequence**. In an arithmetic sequence, each term is the same value added to the previous term. In this case, the number of cupcakes on each tray is constant (185), resulting in the same term repeatedly being presented.

The sequence can be represented as:
- Tray 1: 185
- Tray 2: 185
- Tray 3: 185
- Tray 4: 185

In this example, the common difference (the difference between consecutive terms) is 0, as there is no change in the number of cupcakes on each tray. Since all terms are the same, the sequence is considered arithmetic with a common difference of 0.
