2 Unit 7 Section 1: Sequence: Explicit and Recursive Formulas

3 (Sequences can be either infinite or finite)
A sequence is an ordered set of numbers where each number is called a term of the sequence. -2, 5, 12, 19, 26, … (Sequences can be either infinite or finite) 1st Term 𝒂 𝟏 2nd Term 𝒂 𝟐 3rd Term 𝒂 πŸ‘ 4th Term 𝒂 πŸ’ 5th Term 𝒂 πŸ“

4 Recursive Formula Recursively defined sequences are given so that finding each new term depends on knowing the prior term. 𝒂 𝟏 =πŸ‘, 𝒂 𝒏 =𝟏𝟐+ 𝒂 π’βˆ’πŸ 3, 15, 27, 39, … 𝒂 𝟏 =πŸ‘ 𝒂 𝟐 = 𝒂 𝟏 +𝟏𝟐 𝒂 πŸ‘ = 𝒂 𝟐 +𝟏𝟐 𝒂 πŸ’ = 𝒂 πŸ‘ +𝟏𝟐

5 Try it… find the first 5 terms 1) 𝒂 𝟏 =𝟐 and 𝒂 𝒏 = 𝒂 π’βˆ’πŸ 𝟐 𝟐

6 Explicit Formula 𝒂 𝒏 =πŸπŸπ’βˆ’πŸ— 3, 15, 27, 39, …
Explicitly defined sequences are given so that finding each term depends on what number the term is in the sequence. 𝒂 𝒏 =πŸπŸπ’βˆ’πŸ— 3, 15, 27, 39, … 𝒂 𝟏 =𝟏𝟐 𝟏 βˆ’πŸ— 𝒂 𝟐 =𝟏𝟐 𝟐 βˆ’πŸ— 𝒂 πŸ‘ =𝟏𝟐 πŸ‘ βˆ’πŸ— 𝒂 πŸ’ =𝟏𝟐 πŸ’ βˆ’πŸ—

7 Try it… find the first 5 terms or write a explicit formula 1) 𝒂 𝒏 =𝒏(𝒏+πŸ‘) 2) 1, 3, 7, 15, 31,…
