Sequences and Series #9

A sequence is a particular order in which related events, movements, or things follow each other. A series is a number of things, events, or people of a similar kind or related nature coming one after another. There are two types of series: arithmetic and geometric. Arithmetic is when numbers are added or subtracted. To find the sum of an arithmetic series, use the formula Sn=n(a1+a2/2). To fund the sum of a geometric series, use the formula Sn=a1(1-r^2)/1-r. Geometric is when numbers are multiplied or divided.
