So what exactly is a sequence? A sequence is a list of border numbers. So for example My first number is 0.36. My second is 0.26. My third is 0.16 and so on and so forth. Now in a sequence I can have a pattern or I cannot have a pattern. Okay, so successive. What is successive? B kind of the same as consecutive? Or it means right next to each other. So what's the common difference? Common differences. The same thing as pattern? What's the pattern here? How do I get from the first term to the second term? Well it seems like what's that difference there? I could just subtract these two terms .36 -16. That's approximately -0.10 or 0.1. Is that the same pattern here? In -0.10 -0.10 rate. I could test this. And so with my common difference, fear my pattern, my pattern which is my common difference would be -0.10 or approximately 0.10.
