• -15

• -141

• 6

The number of seats in a section of an arena form an arithmetic sequence. Row one has 14 seats and row 2 has 16 seats. How many seats are in row 30?

(a)  

The 4th term of an arithmetic sequence is 7 and the 6th term is -3. What is the common difference?

(a)  

Write the explicit formula for the geometric sequence.

• a_n = 4(3)^n-1
• a_n = 3(4)^n-1
• a_n = -4(3)^n-1
• a_n = 3(-4)^n-1

Given the sequence:

125, 25, 5, ....

Write the rule a_n using the geometric sequence formula:

• a_n = (125)(1/5)^(n-1)

• a_n = 625(1/5)^(n-1)

• a_n = 625(5)^(n-1)

• a_n = 125 + 5n
