Billy is filling his kitchen sink to wash dishes. After one minute there are 2 gallons of water in the sink. After two minutes there are 4 gallons of water in the sink. After 3 minutes there are 6 gallons of water in the sink. *Write a numeric sequence to represent the amount of water in the sink after the first 5 minutes.* *Is this an arithmetic or geometric sequence? How do you know?*
2, 4, 6, 8, 10 This is an arithmetic sequence. I know this because the sink fills up with water at a constant rate and the difference between each consecutive term is the same.
