Explanation:
An arithmetic sequence has a common difference, meaning you use addition or subtraction to get from term to term, and each term in the sequence is an equal distance apart.
A geometric sequence has a common ratio, meaning that you use multiplication or division to get from term to term.
If you look at this sequence:
14-2 = 12
12-2 = 10
10-2 = 8
8 -2 = 4
etc.
Because you are subtracting 2 each time, 2 is the common difference, and the sequence is arithmetic.

Answer:
11/20
Step-by-step explanation:
5 cents is worth $0.05.
A quarter is worth $0.25.
A dime is worth $0.10
A nickel is worth $0.05
A penny is worth $0.01
In total there are 40 coins in the jar.
The coins that are worth more than $0.05 dollars are the dimes and quarters, so there are 22 coins worth more than $0.05.
Therefore, the probability of of picking a coin worth more than 5 cents is:
22 / 40 = 11/20
