MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

5 mins • 1 pt

Which formula below shows how to write an EXPLICIT formula for an arithmetic sequence?

f(n) = f(1) + d(n - 1)

f(1) = 1st term

d = common difference

n = position of a term

f(n) = value of nth term

f(n) = d + f(1)(n - 1)

f(1) = 1st term

d = common difference

n = position of a term

f(n) = value of nth term

f(1) = d + f(n)(n - 1)

f(1) = 1st term

d = common difference

n = position of a term

f(n) = value of nth term

Answer explanation

Remember... An explicit rule is:

"First Term Common Difference (n-1) DONE"

MATCH QUESTION

5 mins • 1 pt

Match the following explicit rules to the sequence they each describe:

-4, -21, -38, -55, ...

f(n)= 4 + 13(n-1)

17, 13, 9, 5, ...

f(n)= 17 - 4(n-1)

4, 17, 30, 43, ...

f(n) = -4 - 17(n-1)

13, 17, 21, 25, ...

f(n)= 13 + 4(n-1)

Answer explanation

Remember... An explicit rule is:

"First Term Common Difference (n-1) DONE"
