How to find the 5th term in an arithmetic sequence using the explicit rule?
Nth number in an arithmetic series equals 'a + nd', where 'a' is the first number, 'n' signifies the Nth number and d is the amount by which each term in the series is incremented. For the 5th term it would be a + 5d
What is the difference between an arithmetic series and a geometric series?
An arithmetic series is the sequence of partial sums of an arithmetic sequence. That is, if A = {a, a+d, a+2d, ..., a+(n-1)d, ... } then the terms of the arithmetic series, S(n), are the sums of the first n terms and S(n) = n/2*[2a + (n-1)d]. Arithmetic series can never converge.A geometric series is the sequence of partial sums of a geometric sequence. That is, if G = {a, ar, ar^2, ..., ar^(n-1), ... } then the terms of the geometric series, T(n), are the sums of the first n terms and T(n) = a*(1 - r^n)/(1 - r). If |r| < 1 then T(n) tends to 1/(1 - r) as n tends to infinity.
What is meant by arithmetic sum?
That refers to the sum of an arithmetic series.
The answer to this question Find the sum of the first 25 elements what series -5 19 43 67?
-5 19 43 67 ...This is an arithmetic sequence because each term differs from the preceding term by a common difference, 24.In order to find the sum of the first 25 terms of the series constructed from the given arithmetic sequence, we need to use the formulaSn = [2t1 + (n - 1)d] (substitute -5 for t1, 25 for n, and 24 for d)S25 = [2(-5) + (25 - 1)24]S25 = -10 + 242S25 = 566Thus, the sum of the first 25 terms of an arithmetic series is 566.
