In this video I will find the formula of the sequence when given a set of the first few terms of the sequence: Example 3.

Next video in the series can be seen at:

This series of videos is simply fantastic! The subject seems not to diificult to start with, but in my experience it requires both a lot of experience and knowledge. So easy to get some details wrong. As usual prof. van Biezen clearifies matters in a splendid way! Thanks!

At the time, when this series of videos was in progress (2016/2017), I was having a hard time understanding sequences and series in my school. I didn't know that a great teacher like you was making these videos. I am so sad now for all the time I have wasted at that time trying to follow my teacher’s useless lectures. But I'm also happy to find this and other great series on your channel, sir. Thank you so much. <3

Sir, is there a time where the sign alternates like this: And if so what are your advice on finding the formula for that kind of sequence? Thanks!

Great video's, really helpfull! The constant automatic muting when you're not speaking is quite annoying though. I'd say it's better to have a constant noise on the background than constantly alternating noise.

prof, can this question be done as f(n) = 1/(-2)^(n-1) ?
