How do you find the nth term of decreasing linear sequence?
The answer depends on what information you have. If you know the first number, a, and the common difference d, (where d is negative), then the nth term is a + (n - 1)*d : exactly the same as in an increasing linear sequence. The only difference is that d is negative instead of positive.
What is series in math?
It is a set of numbers derived from a sequence. The first number in the series is the first number of the sequence. The second number in the series is the sum of the first two numbers of the sequence. The third number in the series is the sum of the first three numbers of the sequence. and so on. Mathematically, a series is easily defined using the sigma notation but that, unfortunately, is beyond the scope of this browser.
