Definition: A sequence is a function
whose domain is the finite set {1, 2, 3,
…, n} or the infinite set {1, 2, 3, …}
1. 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
1, 2, 3, 4, 5
n number of terms
an nth term or last term
Finding the Terms in a
sequence
To get the value of a specified term, replace n with the
number of the term.
Find the first 3 terms of :
an = 2n + 3
Find the first 3 terms of : an = ( n+ 2)/ n
a1 = 3
a2 = 2
a3 = 5/3
Find the 1 5 terms of the sequence
st
2. an = 2n - 1
Find the 1 5 terms of the sequence
st
2. an = 2n - 1
1, 3, 5, 7, 9
Finding the General term
or nth term
1, 4, 7, 10, 13
n 1 2 3 4 5
an 1 4 7 10 13
Difference
an = an + b
Where :
a = The constant difference
b = the difference between the first term and the constant difference ( b =
a1 - a )
1, 4, 7, 10, 13
an = an + b
Find the general term of :
7, 12, 17, 22, 27
Answer : an = 5n + 2
Find the nth term or general
term of the given sequence.
3. 8, 5, 2, -1, -4, …
an = -3n+11
or
an=11-3n
