Welshfella is here! I lost this one :), Cause I don't know anyways.

Answer 2

the nth term of an arithmetic series can be written as
a1 + nd where a1 = Ist term and d = common difference

what kind of function is a1 + nd?

Answer 3

its similar to mx + b where x is the variable but for the AS the variable is n.

Answer 4

linear

Answer 5

yes it is

Now for a geometric expression
nth term is

a1r^(n-1) which has a variable exponent n-1

Answer 6

exponential

Answer 7

yes That it basically.

Answer 8

Oh for real? haha thanks
