the following statements best describes the sequence that represents the number
of dots in each group?
A The sequence is arithmetic, because the first differences are constant.
B) The sequence is arithmetic, because the second differences are constant.
c) The sequence is quadratic, because the first differences are constant.
The sequence is quadratic, because the second differences are constant.

The sequence is arithmetic because the second differences are constant. Then the correct option is B.

What is a sequence?

A sequence is a list of elements that have been ordered in a sequential manner, such that members come either before or after.

Consider the given figure, which shows groups of dots arranged in increasingly larger hexagons.

If the pattern continues, the next group of dots would have 61 dots.

The first difference will be

The difference between 7 and 1 is 6.

The difference between 19 and 7 is 12.

The difference between 37 and 19 is 18.

The difference between 61 and 37 is 24.

The second difference will be

The difference between 12 and 6 is 6.

The difference between 18 and 12 is 6.

The difference between 24 and 18 is 6.

Thus, the sequence is arithmetic, because the second differences are constant. Then the correct option is B.
