The nth term of the factorial sequences is [tex]a_n[/tex] = 9/5 + (1/5)n
Given: First term, [tex]a_1[/tex] = 1, second term, [tex]a_2[/tex] = 6/5 and third term, [tex]a_3[/tex] = 7/5
Common difference in terms, d = a₂ - a₁ = [tex]\frac{6}{5} - 1[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
and [tex]a_3 - a_2[/tex] = 1/5
The common difference between the terms is same. Hence, the given factorial sequence is an Arithmetic Progression.
This is an arithmetic progression with common difference, d = 1/5.
nth term formula for an A.P is [tex]a_n[/tex] = a + (n-1)d
where,
n = no of terms
By using the formula of nth term:
[tex]a_n[/tex] = 2 + (1/5)×(n-1)
[tex]a_n[/tex] = 2 - 1/5 + (1/5)n
⇒ [tex]a_n[/tex] = 9/5 + (1/5)n
The nth term of the given fractional sequences is [tex]a_n[/tex] = 9/5 + (1/5)n
