Match the parts of the following function with their correct definitions.
A(n) = a + (n - 1)d
1) A(n) A) common difference
2) a B) value of the nth term
3) n C) value of the first term
4) d D) number of the nth term

Answer:

1) A(n) - B) value of the nth term; 2) a C) value of the first term; 3) n D) number of the nth term; and 4) d A) common difference

Step-by-step explanation:

In an arithmetic sequence, A(n) stands for the general, or nth, term.  a is the value of the first term; d is the common difference (what we add each time); and n is the term number (what we replace with a number to find the term we're after).

An arithmetic sequence is characterized by a common difference.

The functions and their definitions are:

  • A(n) - value of the nth term
  • a - value of the first term
  • n - number of the nth term
  • d - common difference

An arithmetic sequence is represented as:

[tex]\mathbf{A(n) = a + (n - 1)d}[/tex]

Where:

  • a represents the first term
  • d represents the common difference
  • n represents the number of terms
  • A(n) represents the value of the nth term
