1. What is a sequence?

A sequence is a list of numbers, objects, or events that follow a specific pattern or order.

2. How do you determine what comes next in a sequence?

To determine what comes next in a sequence, you must first identify the pattern and then use that pattern to predict the next number or object in the sequence.

3. What are some common types of sequences?

Some common types of sequences include arithmetic sequences, geometric sequences, and Fibonacci sequences.

4. Can a sequence have more than one pattern?

No, a sequence can only have one pattern. If there appear to be multiple patterns, it is likely that the sequence is actually made up of multiple smaller sequences.

5. What is the importance of studying sequences?

Studying sequences helps us understand patterns and predict future outcomes. It also has practical applications in fields such as mathematics, computer science, and genetics.
