Definitions
- Arithmetic Sequence - A sequence made by adding the same value each time.
- Geometric Sequence - The same number is multiplied or divided by each element to get to the next.
- Average Rate of Change - Slope of the line through two points
- Domain - The set of all inputs (x values) of a function
- Range - The set of all outputs (y values) of a function
- Explicit Formula - A formula that allows direct computation for any term in a sequence.
- Recursive Formula - A formula that requires computation of all previous terms to find a value.
- Exponential Function - A function whose value is a constant raised to the power of the variable.
- Term - A value in a sequence - the first value in a sequence is the first time, the second value is the second term, and so on; a term is also any of the monomials that make up a polynomials.
- Vertical Translation - For every point, y has a different value by a constant.
- Horizontal Translation - For every point, x has a different value by a constant.
- Linear Function - A function with a constant rate of change and a straight line graph.
- Exponential Function - A function whose value is raised to the power of the variable.
