Arithmetic Sequences and SeriesA series of free Intermediate Algebra Video Lessons from Brightstorm online Algebra series.
Arithmetic Sequences A list of numbers that follows a rule is called a sequence. Sequences whose rule is the addition of a constant are called arithmetic sequences, similar to geometric sequences that follow a rule of multiplication. Homework problems on arithmetic sequences often ask us to find the nth term of a sequence using a formula. Arithmetic sequences are important to understanding arithmetic series.
Arithmetic Series We can use what we know of arithmetic sequences to understand arithmetic series. An arithmetic series is a series or summation that sums the terms of an arithmetic sequence. There are methods and formulas we can use to find the value of an arithmetic series. Understanding arithmetic series can help to understand geometric series, and both concepts will be used when learning more complex Calculus topics.
