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.
