How can you represent the terms of a sequence?
Somebody ? Please Help me ..
you can represent them using the \(general\ term\) maybe for ex, the general term / nth term of arithmetic sequence is \(a_n = a + (n-1)d\)
Thank you soooo Much May you assist me With Another Question Please ? .... @ganeshie8
ha sure :)
How can you define an arithmetic or geometric sequence?
don't understand your question
arithmetic sequence progresses with a \(common\ difference\), ex :- 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.... is an arithmetic sequence cuz, difference between any two adjacent terms is same (equal to 1 here)
Oh okay and like How can you model the sum of an arithmetic or geometric series? @ganeshie8
we're not done wid geometric sequence yet :) geometric sequence progresses with a \(common\ ratio\), ex :- 1, 2, 4, 8, 16.... is an geometrc sequence cuz, ratio between any two adjacent terms is same (equal to 2 here)
Ohhhhhhh Okay im Sorry and then ? was that it about geometric sequence?
yup !
and what about How can you model the sum of an arithmetic or geometric series?
@ganeshie8
;)
Sum of arithmetic sequence can be modelled using the formula :- \(\large S_n = \frac{n}{2}[2a+(n-1)d]\) where, \(n\) = number of terms \(a\) = first term \(d\) = common difference
Sum of geometric sequence can be modelled using the formula :- \(\large S_n = \frac{a(r^n-1)}{r-1}\) where, \(n\) = number of terms \(a\) = first term \(r\) = common ratio
Thank you soooo very much !!
