The objective of this module is to graph the terms of the arithmetic sequence(s).

The second (bottom), applet will generate the various terms of the sequence, depending on how you set a₁, and the difference.

The first (top), applet is where you will input the x-value (term number) and the y-value (term value) for each term.
Example: Assuming nothing has been changed yet, so a₁ is 0 and the difference is 1.
So, type (1,0) into the "Input" box and press enter (first term).
Enter (2,1) into the "Input" box and press enter (second term).

Finally, find the equation for this sequence. In this case, the equation should be "x-1". Type this into the "Input" box and press enter. This line should go through all of the points of the sequence.

 

Also, depending on the sequence, you may need to use the "Move", "Zoom-In", or "Zoom-Out" buttons to view all of the points.
