Sequences Missing Terms
Something missing from your knowledge of sequences? Viewers of a short YouTube video learn how to find missing values in a sequence. These include arithmetic and geometric sequences, as well as patterns that do not fit either category.

The Y Chromosome
Forward and backward, it's all the same! Scientists recently discovered the y chromosome's palindrome nature suggests it's possible to for the y chromosome to recombine with itself! An animation resource gives viewers insight into the...

Can You Find the Next Number in This Sequence?
It is not your typical type of sequence. The resource presents a number sequence that is not generated using a mathematical formula. Saying a terms digits creates the next term in the sequence, allowing learners to see patterns these...

How Infinity Explains the Finite
Using infinity to prove a sequence is finite sounds counter-intuitive, doesn't it? Scholar learn about hereditary base notation and the Goodstein sequence. They discover that proving the Goodstein sequence is finite requires infinite...

Introduction to Sequences
Finding patterns—seems easy enough. High schoolers learn the definition of a sequence in a concept video. Four problem videos then cover finding a particular term of a sequence given an explicit formula and identifying arithmetic...

What is the Formula for the nth Term in a Geometric Sequence?
What is the difference between an arithematic sequence and a geometric sequence? In an arithematic sequence the constant ratio is added, and in a geometric sequence the constant ratio is multiplied. Watch this video and learn how to use...

The nth Term for Linear Sequences
For the nth time, I'm telling you to find the sequence. Given an arithmetic sequence, the video shows how to find the nth term of the sequence. Pupils also learn how to write an explicit expression for the sequence.

Is a Number in a Sequence
Does it fit the pattern? Individuals watch a video that explains how to determine if a number is in a specified arithmetic sequence. This involves solving a linear equation.

Quadratic Sequences: nth Term
Second time's the charm. Scholars determine the first and second differences of terms in a sequence to identify it as quadratic. They then determine explicit formulas for each quadratic sequence.
