Arithmetic sequence and key facts
- An arithmetic sequence is a sequence where the difference between consecutive terms is always the same(i.e constant).This constant is called the common difference.
- An arithmetic sequence is one which begins with a first term (a) and where each term is separated by a common difference (d). e.g. 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, ...
- The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is given by tn = a + (n - 1)d
- Write the term in the answer box given below (green colored), and Press ENTER key
- Try this process as many times as you want until you get () message.
