What is subscript notation and how does it relate to functions

The video tutorial explains how to find rules in sequences and functions, transitioning from function notation to sequence notation. It covers creating sequences from rules, evaluating terms, and determining rules from given sequences. The tutorial emphasizes understanding input and output in functions and sequences, using examples to illustrate the concepts.

What is the main task when given a list of numbers in the context of sequences?

• To find the sum of the numbers

• To determine the average of the numbers

• To identify the rule governing the sequence

• To arrange the numbers in ascending order

How does sequence notation differ from function notation?

• Sequence notation is only used for arithmetic sequences

• Sequence notation uses different variables

• Sequence notation uses subscript instead of function notation

• Sequence notation uses brackets instead of parentheses

What is the first term of the sequence defined by a(n) = 3n + 2?

• 6

• 5

• 8

• 3

If a sequence is defined by a(n) = 3n + 2, what is the third term?

• 12

• 11

• 9

• 8

How do you find the 11th term of a sequence defined by a(n) = 3n + 2?

• By dividing 11 by 3 and adding 2

• By adding 11 to the previous term

• By multiplying 11 by 3 and adding 2

• By subtracting 2 from 11 and multiplying by 3

What is the value of the 11th term in the sequence a(n) = 3n + 2?

• 35

• 34

• 36

• 33

What is the process of finding the rule from a given sequence called?

• Sequence evaluation

• Rule determination

• Pattern recognition

• Function analysis
