2.1 Change in Arithmetic and Geometric Sequences Write your questions and thoughts here! 2.1 Notes What is a sequence? A sequence is an ordered list of numbers. It could be finite or infinite. Each listed number is a term. The graph of a sequence contains discrete points, not a connected line or curve. y 1, 2, 4, 8, ... Arithmetic Sequence If each successive term in a sequence has a _____________________ (or a constant rate of change), the sequence is called arithmetic. The ????th term of an arithmetic sequence is given by ???? ???? ???????? where ___ is the initial value [zero term] and ___ is the common difference. 1. Find an equation (rule) that represents the sequence 2, 5, 8, 11, ... . Using your equation, find the 100th term of the sequence? You can write the equation for the sequence using ANY term, not just the initial term
