Questions and Answers

What is an Arithmetic Sequence?

  • A sequence formed by multiplying a fixed number with each term

    Study Notes

    Arithmetic Sequence

    • Defined by a constant difference between consecutive terms.
    • Represents a linear progression of numbers.

    Arithmetic Recursive Formula

    • Expressed as an = an-1 + d.
    • "d" denotes the fixed difference added to each term to reach the next.

    Arithmetic Explicit Formula

    • Given as an = a1 + (n-1)d.
    • "a1" is the first term, "n" is the term position, and "d" is the common difference.

    Geometric Sequence

    • Characterized by a constant ratio between consecutive terms.
    • Demonstrates exponential growth or decay depending on the ratio.

    Geometric Recursive Formula

    • Written as an = an-1 x r.
    • "r" represents the fixed ratio multiplied to obtain the subsequent term.

    Geometric Explicit Formula

    • Given by an = a1 x r^(n-1).
    • "a1" is the first term, "r" is the common ratio, and "n" indicates the term position in the sequence.
