What is the common difference in an arithmetic sequence?
Write a formula for the general term (the nth term) of each arithmetic sequence. Then use the formula for \(a_{n}\) to find \(a_{20}\), the 20 th term of the sequence. \(1,5,9,13, \ldots\)
Determine whether each sequence is arithmetic or geometric. Then find the next two terms. \(\sqrt{3}, 3,3 \sqrt{3}, 9, \ldots\)
Find the indicated term for the geometric sequence with first term, \(a_{1}\), and common ratio, \(r\). Find \(a_{8}\), when \(a_{1}=12, r=\frac{1}{2}\).
Determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. I've noticed that the big difference between arithmetic and geometric sequences is that arithmetic sequences are based on addition and geometric sequences are based on multiplication.
