Course 3

3-6 Arithmetic Sequences

A sequence is an ordered list of numbers or objects, called terms. In an arithmetic sequence, the difference between one term and the next is always the same. This difference is called the common difference. The common difference is added to each term to get the next term.

Course 3

3-6 Arithmetic Sequences

The terms decrease by 2.

Additional Example 1: Finding the Common Difference in an Arithmetic Sequence

Find the common difference in each arithmetic sequence.A. 11, 9, 7, 5, …

11, 9, 7, 5, …

–2 –2 –2The common difference is 2.

The terms increase by 1.25.

B. 2.5, 3.75, 5, 6.25, …

2.5, 3.75, 5, 6.25, …

+1.25 +1.25 +1.25

The common difference is 1.25.

Course 3

3-6 Arithmetic Sequences

The terms increase by 4.

Check It Out: Example 1

Find the common difference in each arithmetic sequence.A. 2, 6, 10, 14, …

2, 6, 10, 14, …

+4 +4 +4

The common difference is 4.

The terms increase by 2.5.

B. 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10, …

2.5, 5, 7.5, 10, …

+2.5 +2.5 +2.5

The common difference is 2.5.

3-6 Arithmetic Sequences

Additional Example 2: Finding Missing Terms in an Arithmetic Sequence

Each term is 5 more than the previous term.

Use the common difference to find the next three terms.

Find the next three terms in the arithmetic sequence –8, –3, 2, 7, ...

7 + 5 = 12

12 + 5 = 17

17 + 5 = 22

The next three terms are 12, 17, and 22.

Course 3

3-6 Arithmetic Sequences

Check It Out: Example 2

Each term is 3 more than the previous term.

Use the common difference to find the next three terms.

Find the next three terms in the arithmetic sequence –9, –6, –3, 0, ...

0 + 3 = 3

3 + 3 = 6

6 + 3 = 9

The next three terms are 3, 6, and 9.
