What is an arithmetic sequence?

Back

An arithmetic sequence is a sequence of numbers in which the difference between consecutive terms is constant.

Front

What is a geometric sequence?

Back

A geometric sequence is a sequence of numbers in which each term after the first is found by multiplying the previous term by a fixed, non-zero number called the common ratio.

Front

What does it mean if a sequence is neither arithmetic nor geometric?

Back

A sequence is neither arithmetic nor geometric if it does not have a constant difference between terms (arithmetic) or a constant ratio (geometric).

How do you calculate the value of an asset after depreciation?

Back

To calculate the value of an asset after depreciation, use the formula: Value = Initial Value * (1 - Depreciation Rate)^Number of Years.

Front

What is the formula for exponential decay?

Back

The formula for exponential decay is: y = a * e^(-kt), where 'a' is the initial amount, 'k' is the decay constant, and 't' is time.

Front

How does vertical stretching affect the graph of a function?

Back

Vertical stretching multiplies the output values of the function by a factor greater than 1, making the graph taller.

Front

What does it mean to shift a graph to the right?

Back

Shifting a graph to the right means that every point on the graph is moved horizontally to the right by a certain number of units.

Front

What does it mean to shift a graph upward?

Back

Shifting a graph upward means that every point on the graph is moved vertically up by a certain number of units.

Front

What is the significance of the base in an exponential function?

Back

The base in an exponential function determines the rate of growth or decay; a base greater than 1 indicates growth, while a base between 0 and 1 indicates decay.

Front

What is the common ratio in a geometric sequence?

Back

The common ratio in a geometric sequence is the factor by which each term is multiplied to get the next term.
