Day 93 Explicit and recursive form for sequences (day 1)

Introduction Sequences are best expressed in a more compact form for easy comprehension and handling. The most common forms are the usual listing, the use of recursive and the explicit form. In this presentation, we are going to discuss the recursive and the explicit form of expressing geometric sequences.

Vocabulary: Recursive form of a sequence This is a form of representing a sequence where the rule shows the relationship between the consecutive terms Explicit form of a sequence This is a form where the general expression for any term (a general term in this case) is given This can be done in the notebooks or on vocabulary cards. Whatever system you use 
