Equation Example One
Defining Rule

tn = 5n - 4

Generating the Sequence

To generate the sequence, substitute the natural numbers into the equation.


Substitute n = 1, 2, 3, 4 into t(n) = 5n - 4

Sequence: 1, 6, 11, 16, 21, 26, 31, . . .

Sequence: Starting with one, add five to each term of the sequence to determine the next term of the sequence.
