1. Consider the sequence given by a “plus 8” pattern: 2, 10, 18, 26, …. Shae says that the
formula for the sequence is 𝑓(𝑛) = 8𝑛 + 2. Marcus tells Shae that she is wrong because
the formula for the sequence is 𝑓(𝑛) = 8𝑛 − 6.
a. Which formula generates the sequence by starting at 𝑛 = 1? At 𝑛 = 0?
b. Find the 100th term in the sequence.
2. Write a formula for the sequence of cube numbers: 1, 8, 27, 64, …. (state where n started)
3. Consider a sequence generated by the formula 𝒇(𝒏) = 𝟔𝒏 − 𝟒 starting with 𝒏 = 𝟏.
Generate the terms 𝒇(𝟏), 𝒇(𝟐), 𝒇(𝟑), 𝒇(𝟒), and 𝒇(𝟓).
