Arithmetic Sequences

This week in math we got introduced to arithmetic sequences.

An arithmetic sequence is a sequence of numbers that increases or decreases by the same amount every time.  You also may know arithmetic sequences are very similar to linear equations.

Arithmetic sequences may have 4 terms or 400.  A formula has been created so when you need to know what term 365 is you don’t have to write out 365 terms.

Below is an example when trying to find the 26th term:
