Arithmetic Sequences

Master arithmetic sequences: understand terms and find the common difference!

Match each term with its definition. Sequence A set of numbers that follows a pattern. Term Each number in a sequence. Arithmetic Sequence A sequence followed by adding a fixed number to the previous term. Common Difference The fixed number added to the previous term in an arithmetic sequence. Finite AP When the number of terms in an AP is finite. Infinite AP When AP does not have a last term. The sequences below are arithmetic.Match each sequence with its common difference. 5, 8, 11, 14, ... d = 3 -17, -12, -7, -2, ... d = 5 -8, -11, -14, -17, ... d = -3 21, 18, 15, ... d = -3
