    also at the time stamp 8:05 you've put plus 3 on one side and -3 on the other (49-3=46) but the answer is still correct but I just wanted to point that out for anyone who also got confused :) (should of been 49+3=52)

    I have to use arrows and not the like the smile line (inverted parabola) line when showing the term to term difference because arrows are a mathematical symbol

    • @TheGCSEMathsTutor
      @TheGCSEMathsTutor  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Lolll Hello You can do whatever you like! The lines that I draw are simply a method that I use, they are not worth any marks regardless of if they are loops or arrows. But you may do as you please 😁 you don’t have the draw any lines/arrows/mathematical symbols at all, it’s merely a visual representation!

    Aswell you have to write un with a small n when you write the nth term or the rule

    • @lolllhello7718
      @lolllhello7718 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That’s the mathematical symbol

    • @TheGCSEMathsTutor
      @TheGCSEMathsTutor  5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Lolll Hello Sorry but what you are saying doesn’t make sense. You may have to explain yourself clearer. What I have done here is 100% mathematically sound though, I can guarantee you of that! (Mathematics degree and a masters degree in mathematical education)

    • @lolllhello7718
      @lolllhello7718 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you but what u was saying is that when saying what the nth term is or term to term rule is you should say un (with a small n) for example un =3x-4

    • @TheGCSEMathsTutor
      @TheGCSEMathsTutor  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Lolll Hello aaaah yes I know what you are referring to now! That terminology is not required or necessary for these types of linear sequences. At GCSE level we use this terminology for geometric sequences and when looking at iterative formulae but this is not used/required when looking at linear or quadratic sequences 😁

    Why are we adding 1 to both sides 5:56

    • @mattiafazio8168
      @mattiafazio8168 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don’t know if you still need the answer to this question, but it’s because you’re trying to find out if 4n-1 = 51, so you need to solve this equation. First you add 1 to both sides so it becomes 4n= 52 and then you can just divide by 4 and see that n is 13. Seeing as n is a whole number it means that 51 is in the sequence and if you use your calculator and out 4x13 you will get 52, minus one and you get 51, just as the original equation was. Sorry for the long message btw.
