Ex. 1: 

Solving for x in three consecutive arithmetic sequence terms

Finding the common difference in an arithmetic sequence

Finding the 7th term using the arithmetic sequence formula

Finding which term in an arithmetic sequence has a value of 85

Finding first term, common difference, and general formula from two terms

An arithmetic sequence is a list of numbers with a constant gap between consecutive terms, called the common difference. This lesson covers the definition, the explicit and recursive formulas for finding any term, and worked examples that build the skills needed for arithmetic series and progression problems.

Overview

Arithmetic Sequences and the Nth Term Formula

What You'll Learn

An arithmetic sequence is an ordered list of numbers where each term is found by adding the same fixed value, the common difference, to the term before it.

The common difference, usually written as d, can be found by subtracting any term from the one that follows it.

The nth term formula a sub n equals a sub 1 plus (n minus 1) times d lets you jump straight to any term without listing every number in between.

A recursive rule, a sub n equals a sub (n minus 1) plus d, describes the same pattern but only in terms of the previous term.

Arithmetic sequences differ from geometric sequences, which grow by a constant ratio instead of a constant difference.

What You'll Practice

Finding common differences and specific terms using the sequence formula

Solving for unknown term positions given term values

Using systems of equations to find T1 and d from two known terms

Working with algebraic expressions in consecutive arithmetic terms
