Math 11 Sequences and Series Blog Post
1.1 Arithmetic Sequences
1.common difference=Tn-Tn-1
2.The Formula for the General Term of an Arithmetic Sequence
The formula for the general term of an arithmetic sequence is
Tn=T1+(n-1)d or Tn=a+(n-1)d
(explain why you add 9 not 10 common difference to find term 10)
1.2 Arithmetic Series
1.for example. 3,5,7,9,11————-arithmetic sequence
3+5+7+9+11———arithmetic series.
Sn=n[2a+(n-1)d]/2 Sn=n(a+Tn)/2
