Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let's analyze and complete the table in the image step by step:
Sequences in the Table:
- Sequence A: (given)
- Sequence B: (given)
- Sequence C: Not provided (we will find it).
- Sequence D: Not provided (we will find it).
- Sequence E: (given)
Relationships and Rules:
-
Sequence A has a term-to-term rule of adding 4 between consecutive terms:
- ,
- ,
- , and so on.
-
Sequence B is related to Sequence A by adding 1 to each term in Sequence A:
- ,
- ,
- ,
- .
Therefore, Sequence B follows the same term-to-term rule as Sequence A, i.e., add 4.
-
Sequence C is described as adding 4 to each term in Sequence A:
- ,
- ,
- ,
- .
Hence, Sequence C: .
-
Sequence D is described as doubling each term in Sequence A:
- ,
- ,
- ,
- .
Thus, Sequence D: .
-
Sequence E is and appears to follow a rule of subtracting 4 (or adding negative 4) between consecutive terms:
- ,
- ,
- .
Completing the Table:
- Sequence C:
- Sequence D:
- 5th term of Sequence A:
- 5th term of Sequence B:
- 5th term of Sequence C:
- 5th term of Sequence D:
- 5th term of Sequence E:
Let me know if you'd like further explanation on any of the sequences or steps involved! Here are some related questions:
- How can you derive the formula for the -th term of an arithmetic sequence?
- Can you write the explicit formula for Sequence B based on its term-to-term rule?
- What is the difference between geometric and arithmetic sequences?
- How do the properties of the sequences change when you double or halve terms?
- Can sequences like these be used in modeling real-world problems?
Tip: Arithmetic sequences have a constant difference between consecutive terms, and this can be used to quickly generate any term in the sequence!
