The general (or nth) term is given by the equation

t(n) = a + (n-1)d

where

a is the first term

and

d is the common difference between successive terms.

How do you find the first four term of an arithmetic sequence?

You need an equation for the nth term of the sequence, or some other means of identifying the sequence. In general, they will be a+n, a+2n, a+3n and a+4n although some go for a, a+n, a+2n and a+3n.

What is an arithmetic sequence examples?

An arithmetic sequence is a sequence of numbers in which the difference between consecutive terms is constant. For example, the sequence 2, 5, 8, 11, 14 has a common difference of 3. Another example is 10, 7, 4, 1, which has a common difference of -3. In general, an arithmetic sequence can be expressed as (a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d), where (a_1) is the first term and (d) is the common difference.


What is a non example of arithmetic sequence?

A non-example of an arithmetic sequence is the series of numbers 2, 4, 8, 16, which is a geometric sequence. In this sequence, each term is multiplied by 2 to get to the next term, rather than adding a fixed number. Therefore, it does not have a constant difference between consecutive terms, which is a defining characteristic of an arithmetic sequence.
