    This document defines and provides examples of arithmetic progressions. An arithmetic progression is a sequence of numbers where the difference between consecutive terms is constant. The document explains that each term increases or decreases by the common difference. It provides the formula for calculating any term in the sequence as the initial term plus the product of the common difference and the term number minus one. An example arithmetic progression uses initial term of 4 and common difference of 3.

    Definition

    Arithmetic Progression (also called arithmetic


    sequence), is a sequence of numbers such that the
    difference between any two consecutive terms is
    constant. Each term therefore in an arithmetic
    progression will increase or decrease at a constant
    value called the common difference, d.
    Examples of arithmetic progression are:
    • 2, 5, 8, 11,... common difference = 3
    • 23, 19, 15, 11,... common difference = -4
    INTRODUCTION
    In mathematics, an arithmetic progression
    (AP) or arithmetic sequence is a sequence of
    numbers such that the difference between the
    consecutive terms is constant. For instance,
    the sequence 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, … is an
    arithmetic progression with common
    difference 2.
    INTIAL TERM
    • If the initial term of an arithmetic progression is a1 and the
    common difference of successive members is d, then the
    nth term of the sequence is given by:
    We want a sequence of numbers. Let's start with a number:
    a1.
    Now add a number d, (for "difference").
    We get a1 + d and the first 2 terms in our sequence are:
    a1, a1 + d For the next term, let's add d to that last term and
    we have a1 + 2d.
    Our sequence is now:
    a1, a1 + d, a1 + 2d We continue this process for as long as
    we can stay awake. The resulting set of numbers is called an
    arithmetic progression (AP) or arithmetic sequence.
    EXAMPLE
    • Let's start with a1 = 4 and then add d = 3 each
    time to get each new number in the
    sequence. We get:

    an = a1 + (n -1)d
    • 4, 7, 10, 13, … The nth term, an of an AP is:
