Arithmetic Sequences - Definition & Examples

Arithmetic Sequences - Definition & Examples arithmetic sequence Arithmetic sequences are also known as linear sequences because, if you plot the position on a horizontal axis and the term on the vertical axis, you get a arithmetic sequence For example, in the arithmetic sequence 2, 5, 8, 11, 14, 17, … the first term is 2 and the common difference is 3 Therefore, the general formula for this

arithmetic sequence If the first term of the sequence is a and the common difference is d, then the arithmetic sequence can be written as a, a+d, a+2d, a+3d, …, a+d, …

arithmetic sequence Arithmetic Sequence Formula From the above concept, we get the standard form of writing an arithmetic progression, which is given as: If k is A geometric sequence goes from one term to the next by always multiplying by the same value So 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, is geometric, because each step
