Question

Write the series with summation notation

1+5+9+13+17

Answer 1

Can you think of a way to describe that sequence?

Answer 2

It's finite

Answer 3

if I gave you a number input that went 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, could you write a function that produces that sequence from those numbers?

Answer 4

0->1
1->5
2->9
3->13
4->17

Answer 5

an= 4n -3

Answer 6

that would be one, if I started at 1

Answer 7

\[\sum_ {1}^{5}4i-3\]

Answer 8

That's my answer

Answer 9

That's very close: you also need to specify the iteration variable.

\[\sum _{i=1}^5 (4 i-3)\]
