Lesson 1 Quiz Bee

Okay, let's solve this step-by-step: * The first term (a) is 1 * The last term (an) is 100 * The common difference (d) is 1 * Using the formula for the sum of an arithmetic sequence: S = n/2 * (a1 + an) * Where n is the number of terms * Here, n = 100 * a1 = 1 * an = 100 * Plugging into the formula: S = 100/2 * (1 + 100) * S = 100/2 * 101 * S = 5050 * 101 * S = 5050 * 101 * S = 5

A sequence in which a constant (d)
can be added to each term to get
the next term is called an
Arithmetic Sequence.
The constant (d) is called the
Common Difference.
To find the common difference (d),
subtract any term from one that
follows it.
a1 a2 a3 a4 a5

2 5 8 11 14

3 3 3 3
Find the first term and the
common difference of each
arithmetic sequence.

1.) 4,9,14,19, 24
First term (a): 4
Common difference (d): a2  a1 = 9 – 4 = 5

2.) 34, 27, 20,13,6, 1, 8,....


First term (a): 34
Common difference (d): -7

BE CAREFUL: ALWAYS CHECK TO MAKE


SURE THE DIFFERENCE IS THE SAME
BETWEEN EACH TERM !
Now you try!
Find the first term and the common difference of each of
these arithmetic sequences.
Answers with solutions
a=1 and
d = a2 - a1= - 4 - 1 = - 5

a = 11 and
d = a2 - a1= 23 - 11 = 12
The first term of an arithmetic sequence
is (a) . We add (d) to get the next term.
There is a pattern, therefore there is a
formula we can use to give use any term
that we need without listing the whole
sequence .

a1= a = 3
a2= a+d = 3+4 = 7
a3= a+d+d = a+2d = 3+2(4) = 11
a4 = a+d+d+d = a+3d = 3+3(4) = 15

is the number 43!
Now you try!
Find the 10th and 25th term given the following information. Make sure to derive
the general formula first and then list ehat you have been provided.
Answers with solutions
a=1 and d = a2 - a1 = 7 – 1 = 6
a) 1, 7, 13, 19 …. ….
an=a+(n-1)d = 1 + (n-1) 6 = 1+6n-6 So an = 6n-5

a10 = 6(10) – 5 = 55
a25 = 6(25)-5 = 145
b) x+10, x+7, x+4, x+1,. a = x+10 and d = a2 - a1 = x+7-(x+10) = -3

an=a+(n-1)d = x+10 + (n-1)(-3) = x+10-3n+3 So an= x-3n+13


a10 = x -3(10)+13 = x - 17
a25 = x -3(25)+13 = x - 62
c) The first term is 3 and the a = 3 and d = -21
common difference is -21
an=a+(n-1)d = 3 + (n-1) -21 = 3-21n+21 So an= 24-21n
a10 = 24-21(10) = -186 a25 = 24-21(25) = -501

d) The second term is 8 a=8-3 =5 and d =3


and the common
difference is 3 an=a+(n-1)d = 5 + (n-1) 3 = 5+3n-3 So an = 3n+2
a10 = 3(10) +2 = 32 a25 = 3(25)+2 = 77

Find the 14th term of the arithmetic
sequence with first term of 5 and
the common difference is –6.
a = 5 and d = -6
You are looking for the
an = a + (n – 1) d term! List which variables
from the general term are

a14 = 5  (14  1) -6
provided!

= 5 + (13) * -6
= 5 + -78
= -73
The 14th term in this sequence
is the number -73!
In an arithmetic sequence, term 10 is 33 and
term 22 is –3. What are the first four terms of
the sequence?...common difference?
a10=33 Use what you know!
a22= -3

an = a + (n – 1) d an = a + (n – 1) d
For term 10: 33= a + 9d For term 22: -3= a + 21d

HMMM! Two equations you can solve!


SOLVE: 33 = a+9d SOLVE: 33 = a + 9d

-3 = a+21d 33 = a +9(-3)

By elimination 36 = 12d
-
33 = a –27

-3 = d 60 = a

The sequence is 60, 57, 54, 51, …….


In the arithmetic sequence
4,7,10,13,…, which term has a
value of 301?

an = a + (n – 1) d
301  4  ( n  1)3 You are
301  4  3n  3 looking
301  1  3n for n!
300  3n
100  n The 100th term in this
sequence is 301!
