Day 94 Explicit and recursive form for sequences (day 2)

Introduction Numerical sequences are number patterns that 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 use recursive and the explicit form of expressing geometric sequences to determine the next term(s) and the value of the nth terms in a geometric sequence.

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 
