    Recursive Formulas for Arithmetic SequencesNotes 37

    Remember: A Recursive Sequence    

    Write the first five terms of the sequence    _______________

    What is the difference between the terms?

    This _______________ difference is the _____________.

    First term of the sequence

    Rule to find each term after the 1st term

    Constant  Slope 

    10, 15, 20, 25, 30 

    This is a notation for the previous term

    for integers n ≥ 2

    1. What is an arithmetic sequence?

    2. In an arithmetic sequence what is true about the difference between any term and the preceding term?

    3. Define the recursive definition for an arithmetic sequence.

    A list of numbers in which the order matters and which has a constant difference between successive terms?

    It will be the same for every adjacent pair in that sequence.  The constant difference.

    It states the first term and a formula for finding the nth term from the preceding(n1) term by adding the constant difference.

    We start n at 2 because we explicitly state the 1st terms(we already know the first term)

    Thinking recursively: requires the calculation of a term using the previous term.

    The 1st term is 53 and we find all other terms by subtracting 7 from the previous term

    8. When working with an arithmetic sequence the first term is referred toby what phrase?

    9. An arithmetic sequence  represents a constant increasing or constant decreasing situation.

    a. What is the other name given to an arithmetic sequence?  

    b. What does this tell us about all the points generated by the sequence?

    The initial condition

    Linear sequence

    When graphed all the points will form a line.  This will be a discrete graph which means it contains only points not a line connecting them.

    Uses Objective I: In a real-world context, find an equation for a linecontaining two points.

    16. Card Carriers charges $36 to print 1,200 business cards and$56 for 2,700 cards. Assume the relationship between theprice and the number of business cards is linear.

    d. What does the slope in yourequation mean in terms ofthis situation?

    Sample: Each increase in temperature of

    1̊ results in the sale of 68 Frostee Treets.

    e. Use your equation to predict the number of FrosteeTreets that would be sold on a 95˚ day. How close is thisvalue to the actual data?

    Sample: 2457 Frostee Treets; it is close,

    within about 3%.

    f. Does this situation or the one described in Item 2 exhibitthe stronger linear relationship? How do you know this?

    Sample: this situation has the stronger

    linear relationship, since |r | is closer to

    1(r .91).
