Arithmetic Sequences

Question 17 • DHS Algebra 2 V

Which did you include in your response?

Answer

The rule shows that each term is 8 more than the previous term, so the common difference is 8

The explicit formula of an arithmetic sequence is the initial term plus (n – 1)d.

The explicit rule for this function can be found by substituting 42 for a1 and 8 for d.

The explicit rule for the sequence is 42 + (n – 1)8.
