Is 1 11 an arithmetic sequence?
Any pair of numbers will always form an arithmetic sequence.
Is 1 1 1 1 an arithmetic sequence?
Yes.
Who was the founder of arithmetic sequence?
One of the simplest arithmetic arithmetic sequence is the counting numbers: 1, 2, 3, ... . The person who discovered that is prehistoric and, therefore, unknown.
What describes the sequence 1 1 2 3 5 is it arithmetic or geometric?
It is an arithmetic sequence. To differentiate arithmetic from geometric sequences, take any three numbers within the sequence. If the middle number is the average of the two on either side then it is an arithmetic sequence. If the middle number squared is the product of the two on either side then it is a geometric sequence. The sequence 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8 and so on is the Fibonacci series, which is an arithmetic sequence, where the next number in the series is the sum of the previous two numbers. Thus F(n) = F(n-1) + F(n-2). Note that the Fibonacci sequence always begins with the two numbers 0 and 1, never 1 and 1.
Can a recursive formula produce an arithmetic or geometric sequence?
arithmetic sequence * * * * * A recursive formula can produce arithmetic, geometric or other sequences. For example, for n = 1, 2, 3, ...: u0 = 2, un = un-1 + 5 is an arithmetic sequence. u0 = 2, un = un-1 * 5 is a geometric sequence. u0 = 0, un = un-1 + n is the sequence of triangular numbers. u0 = 0, un = un-1 + n(n+1)/2 is the sequence of perfect squares. u0 = 1, u1 = 1, un+1 = un-1 + un is the Fibonacci sequence.
