Now that we have found both the common difference and the first term of our sequence (6, 9, 12, 15, ...), we can write an EXPLICIT FORMULA for the arithmetic sequence.
Formula: an=a1+d(n−1)
Hint: a1= first term & d= common difference
an=3+9(n−1)
an=9+3(n−1)
an=3+6(n−1)
an=6+3(n−1)
Using the formula an=a1+d(n−1) , where a1 represents the first term and d represents the common difference, write a formula for the sequence 18, 16, 14, 12, 10, 8, ...
an=18+2(n−1)
an=18−2(n−1)
an=2+18(n−1)
an=−2+18(n−1)

Given the arithmetic sequence 10, 15, 20, ..., what is the 150th term?
Hint: Write an explicit formula and substitute 150 in for n.
Second Hint: The explicit formula for an arithmetic sequence is an=a1+d(n−1)
Third Hint: The formula needs both the common difference (adding pattern) and the first term. Then n = 150.

Write an explicit formula for the sequence 45, 40, 35, 30, ...
Hint: The sequence is arithmetic so use this formula: an=a1+d(n−1) .
an=45+5(n−1)
an=45−5(n−1)

an=5−45(n−1)
Write an explicit formula for the sequence 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, ...
Hint: The sequence is arithmetic so use this formula: an=a1+d(n−1) .
an=1.5+0.5(n−1)
an=1.5−0.5(n−1)
an=0.5+1.5(n−1)
an=0.5−1.5(n−1)
Write an explicit formula for the sequence -9, -7, -5, -3, ...
Hint: The sequence is arithmetic so use this formula: an=a1+d(n−1) .

Given the geometric sequence 64, 16, 4, 1, ..., write an explicit formula.
Hint: The formula needed is an=a1(r)n−1 .
Second Hint: Similar to arithmetic sequences representing both adding AND subtracting patterns (because subtracting IS adding a negative)... geometric sequences represent both multiplying AND dividing patterns. Dividing is just multiplying by a reciprocal.
an=64(4)n−1
an=4(64)n−1
an=64(41)n−1
an=41(64)n−1

A. Arithmetic
B. Geometric
C. Recursive
D. Explicit
The Recursive Formula for the Arithmetic Sequence is:
A. an = a1 + d (n−1)
B. an = a(n−1) + d
an = a1 ⋅ r (n−1)
an = a(n−1) ⋅ r
The Explicit Formula for the Arithmetic Sequence is:
A. an = a1 + d (n−1)
B. an = a(n−1) + d
an = a1 ⋅ r (n−1)
