Learn to apply arithmetic sequences to predict and evaluate real world situations by computing common differences. By calculating the nth term and applying the correct formula to increase mathematical efficiency, you will take a solid step towards mastery in Algebra.
In this lesson, I'll show you a couple of astronomical situations which could be described with the idea of an arithmetic sequence, and we'll also review what an arithmetic sequence is, and how to calculate the nth term (e.g., the 10th term, the 100th term, the 10,001st term -- whatever you want) of one, etc.
