HELP PLEASE! Which of the following is the graph of an arithmetic sequence whose first term is 0 and whose common difference is 0.5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@SAValkyrie do you understand this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If the first term of the arithmetic sequence is 0, what does it mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The graph should start at the origin?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep exactly! Next step! If arithmetic sequence's common difference is 0.5 what does it mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The points should go up by 0.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So Im assuming it's A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If the value of the first term is 0, the 2nd term would be 0.5 and third term would be 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ohhh okay, so it's A?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hm you have to think about this question carefully... since the x-axis is the value of n(term number) you would have to consider all the graphs.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

When n=1, it's 0, when n=2 it's 0.5, when n=3 it's 1, look at the graphs again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ohhhhhh, I think it's D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep you got it!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

YES! thank you!
