Front

What is the formula for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence?

Back

The nth term can be found using the formula: a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d, where a_1 is the first term and d is the common difference.

Front

What is the sum of the first n terms of an arithmetic sequence?

Back

The sum can be calculated using the formula: S_n = n/2 * (a_1 + a_n), where S_n is the sum of the first n terms, a_1 is the first term, and a_n is the nth term.
