How do you find the sum of the first 25 terms in a sequence?

Hey!

Explanation and

Find the difference between 2 points and see if the sequence is proportional. Then just keep adding till you get to the 25th sequence.

Let's say the sequence is 3,5,7,9,11. We subtract 2 points and we get 2. Each number is +3. After adding we get 50 as the 25th term.

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!

Step-by-step explanation:

It's very necessary to find whether the given sequence is arithmetic or geometric.

In Arithmetic sequence every successive term has a common difference and in geometric sequence every successive term shows a common ratio.

Example of Arithmetic sequence:

1, 2, 3, 4, 5......  

2 - 1 = 1

3 - 2 = 1

common difference of 1.

Example of geometric sequence:

2, 4, 8, 16..........

Common ratio of 2

Now formula to calculate the sum of initial n terms of Arithmetic sequence

where a = first term

n = number of terms to be added

d = common difference

Formula to calculate the sum of initial n terms of the Geometric sequence

where a = first term of the sequence

n = number of terms to be added

r = common ratio

With help of these formula we can find the sum of first 25 terms of any sequence given.

the answer is (-4,-4)

hope this ! : d

alright well the answers to your question is
