It depends. Generally no.
Linear equations are generally in the form [math]y=mx+b[/math] and have a domain of [math](-\infty,\infty)[/math], or all real numbers. However, an arithmetic sequence is only defines for the natural numbers (that is, while numbers [math]> 0[/math].
For any two terms in the arithmetic sequence, [math]a_n[/math] and [math]a_{n+1}[/math], there will always be a point on the linear function that lies in between them, and is such not defined in the sequence.
This does not make the sequence and function unrelated, but rather it makes them not the same.
A similar argument applies for geometric sequences and exponential equations.

As a teacher I have had students struggle with these type of questions... so let me explain how it works, I WILL NOT be giving students answers unless they figure it out...
multiply 365 × 0.75= your answer
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
- *x both sides
divide eleven both sides
x =2
3 times 2 is six
