Chap 9 - sequence, Venn Diagrams Flashcards
define recursive sequence
have to know previous term to get next term
define geometric sequence
x btw terms (by whole no.s and fractions for /)
define arithmetic sequence
+/- btw terms
define Fibonacci sqeuence
+ pervious 2 terms to get next term
formula for arithmetic sequence
a n = a1 + (n-1 )d
a n = nth term
a1 = first term
d = diff btw terms
formula for geometric sequence
a n = a1 x r^n-1
a n = nth term
a1 = first term
r = ratio
note: if only 2 terms given and ask for sequence type- say “not enough info”
define rational
no. can be changed into a fraction
define irrational
no. cannot be changed into a fraction
note: cant have a ( - ) square root
how to write a pattern of reoccurring deciamls
–
x
- write a dash over the no.
how to change reoccurring decimals to fractions
-put over 9’s depending on the no. of reoccurring digits
-eg. if 0.27 with dash, 27/99
how to change reoccurring decimals without a reoccurring one in front to fractions
-make an equations
-times both sides by how many places needed to put . in front of reoccurring digit
-minus litter side by one and no. side by the og no.
-get the letter by itself
eg. 0.683 with dash = x
100x = 68.3 with dash
99x = 68.3 - 0.683
x = 67.65/ 99
x = 41/ 60
note: no decimals in fractions
need outside of circle?
