The first term of a sequence is the initial value or element from which the sequence begins. It is typically denoted as ( a_1 ) or ( a(1) ), depending on the notation used. This term sets the foundation for the subsequent terms that follow according to the sequence's defined rule or pattern.

What is the 5th term of the sequence which has a first term of 17?
That depends what the pattern of the sequence is.
What sequence is formed by subtracting each term of a sequence from the next term?
It is the sequence of first differences. If these are all the same (but not 0), then the original sequence is a linear arithmetic sequence. That is, a sequence whose nth term is of the form t(n) = an + b
What does an mean in an arithmetic sequence?
In an arithmetic sequence, "a" typically represents the first term of the sequence. An arithmetic sequence is defined by a constant difference between consecutive terms, known as the common difference (d). The n-th term of the sequence can be expressed as ( a_n = a + (n-1)d ), where ( a_n ) is the n-th term, ( a ) is the first term, and ( n ) is the term number.
How do you work out the first term in a linear sequence?

How do you find the 100th term of the sequence?
a + 99d where 'a' is the first term of the sequence and 'd' is the common difference.

A sequence formed by subtracting each term of sequence from next term is?
If the first two numbers are 0, 1 or -1 (not both zero) then you get an alternating Fibonacci sequence.
What is the 6th term of the geometric sequence below?
To find the 6th term of a geometric sequence, you need the first term and the common ratio. The formula for the nth term in a geometric sequence is given by ( a_n = a_1 \cdot r^{(n-1)} ), where ( a_1 ) is the first term, ( r ) is the common ratio, and ( n ) is the term number. Please provide the first term and common ratio so I can calculate the 6th term for you.
What is the nth term of the sequence -3 1 5 9 13 17?
The given sequence is an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of 4 between each term. To find the nth term of an arithmetic sequence, we use the formula: nth term = a + (n-1)d, where a is the first term, d is the common difference, and n is the term number. In this case, the first term (a) is -3, the common difference (d) is 4, and the term number (n) is the position in the sequence. So, the nth term of the given sequence is -3 + (n-1)4 = 4n - 7.
What is the 10 term of the sequence 3 5 7 9?
The sequence provided is an arithmetic sequence where the first term is 3 and the common difference is 2. The formula for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is given by ( a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d ), where ( a_1 ) is the first term and ( d ) is the common difference. For the 10th term, ( a_{10} = 3 + (10-1) \times 2 = 3 + 18 = 21 ). Thus, the 10th term of the sequence is 21.
