Sequences Learning Outcomes I can Find the n th term for sequences. I can use different methods to find the nth term and explore sequences I can understand the role of counter examples in the context of rules for sequences and disproving hypotheses
Sequences The nth term of a sequence 1)Consider the sequence developed by linear function a)y = 2x + 1 x12345 y b) y = 3x + 1 x12345 y c) y = mx + 1 x12345 y
Sequences Linear functions The nth term of a sequence 1)Consider the sequence developed by linear function a)y = 2x + 1 x12345 y b) y = 3x + 1 c) y = mx + 1 ∴ with linear function the first difference is constant

Sequences Additional Notes
Sequences Learning Outcomes: At the end of the topic I will be able to Can Revise Do Further I can Find the n th term for sequences. I can use different methods to find the nth term and explore sequences I can understand the role of counter examples in the context of rules for sequences and disproving hypotheses
