What are the main differences between using a recursive formula and using an explicit formula to describe an arithmetic sequence?
Describe how linear functions and arithmetic sequences are similar. How are they different?
Both arithmetic sequences and linear functions have a constant rate of change. They are different because their domains are not the same; linear functions are defined for all real numbers, and arithmetic sequences are defined for natural numbers or a subset of the natural numbers.
For the following exercises, find the common difference for the arithmetic sequence provided.
For the following exercises, determine whether the sequence is arithmetic. If so find the common difference.
