Unit rates and equivalent rates

Unit rates and equivalent rates

What you'll learn

  • Calculate the first five terms of a recursively defined sequence, given its initial term(s) and recursive formula, with 80% accuracy on a summative assessment.
  • Explain the relationship between the initial term(s) and the recursive formula in determining subsequent terms of a sequence, using appropriate mathematical terminology, in a written response graded using a rubric.
  • Identify whether a given sequence is defined recursively or explicitly, and justify their reasoning by citing the presence or absence of a dependence on previous terms, with 100% accuracy on a formative quiz.
  • Apply recursive sequences to model real-world scenarios, such as population growth or compound interest, and determine the value of a specified term within the context of the problem, demonstrating correct application of the recursive formula in at least two out of three presented scenarios.
