Answer:

  c  1, 2, 4, 8

Step-by-step explanation:

It can work well to look at the first differences.

  a: 4 -2 = 2; 6 -4 = 2 ⇒ differences are 2, 2, 2

  b: differences are 0, 1, 1

  c: differences are 1, 2, 4

  d: differences are 2, 2, 2

Sequences 'a' and 'd' have common differences that are constant. These are arithmetic sequences. Sequence 'b' is of no named type.

Sequence 'c' has first differences that have a common ratio, the same as the sequence itself. This is an indication the sequence is geometric. The ratios of values are 2/1 = 2; 4/2 = 2; 8/4 = 2, so the terms have a common ratio.

Sequence c is a geometric progression.
