To classify the sequence 1, 1.7, 2.4, 3.1, we need to examine the differences between consecutive terms.

  1. Difference between 1 and 1.7:
    \( 1.7 - 1 = 0.7 \)

  2. Difference between 1.7 and 2.4:
    \( 2.4 - 1.7 = 0.7 \)

  3. Difference between 2.4 and 3.1:
    \( 3.1 - 2.4 = 0.7 \)

Since the difference between consecutive terms is constant (0.7), this sequence is classified as an Arithmetic sequence.

Thus, the correct response is:

Arithmetic
