Recourrence Realationship Sequences
A recourrence realationship defines a sequence in which the reccourent term is dependent on the previous terms
Geometric Sequences
Geometric sequences are sequences of numbers with a common ratio
Arithmatic Sequences

Problem Solving (Polya) These are the proper steps to sovle a problem. http://www.hawaii.edu/suremath/why1Polya.html http://www.math.utah.edu/~pa/math/polya.html
4. Look back (Or reflect)
Is there an easier way to solve the problem?
Do I need to revise?
Does the answer make sense?
3. Carry out the plan (Persistance, may be necesary to revise plan)
2. Devising a plan
Change point of veiw
Act it out
Work backwards
Use a tool
Draw a model
Solve a simpler problem
Make an organized list
Make a table
Use a formula if one exist
Find a resource to assist
Guess and check
1. Identify the problem (Understand the problem)
