The answer depends on the sequence. Different sequences may be used in different circumstances.
An arithmetic function is any function which is defined for all positive integers, and has values which are either real or complex.
I also searched and i came up with the answer of NO. no where was it said they were real

a real number is a rational number or the limit of a sequence of rational numbers, as opposed to a complex number.

Of course! People were doing real arithmetic long before the first computer!

First we define an arithmetic sequence as one where each successive term has a common difference and that difference is constant. An example might be 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, ..where the difference is 3. 1+3=4, 4+3=7 etc. Here is a common example that is given as a problem but shows a real life example of arithmetic sequences. A theater has 60 seats in the first row, 68 seats in the second row, 76 seats in the third row, and so on in the same increasing pattern. If the theater has 20 rows of seats, how many seats are in the theater? The common difference is 8 and we want the the sum of the first 20 terms this gives us the sum of all the seats. We solve this by first finding the 20th term which is 212 and noting that the first term is 60. We add the first and the 20th terms in the sequence and multiply the sum by 20. Next we divide that product by 2. The sum we are looking for is 20(60+212)/2=2720 so there are 2720 seats in the theater! The general formula to find the sum of the first n terms in an arithmetic sequence is to multiply n by the sum of the first and nth terms in the sequence and divide that answer by 2. In symbols we write Sn=n(a1+ an)/2
Arithmetic progressions are commonly used in various real-life scenarios, such as calculating interest on loans or investments, determining the depreciation of assets over time, and predicting population growth. They are also used in creating schedules, budgets, and analyzing trends in data sets. Additionally, arithmetic progressions are utilized in fields like physics to model motion and in computer science for algorithms and data structures.
