Arithmetic Sequence

An arithmetic sequence is a
sequence where each
succeeding term is
obtained by adding a fixed
number. The fixed number
is called the common
difference which is denoted
To find the next terms in an
arithmetic sequence, we use the
formula:
an = a1 + (n – 1)d
where;
an = the last nth term
a1 = the first term
n = the number of terms in the
sequence
Study the given examples
below and
then identify if Arithmetic d=3
it is arithmetic
or not.Not
Arithmetic
1. 10, 13, 16, 19, … d = -8
2. 2, 6, 18, 54…
3. 57, 49, 41
Determine the 10 term in the
th

sequence
4, 6, 8, 10, ...
The first element: a1 = 4.
The common difference: d = 2.
The term: n = 10.
an = a1 + (n – 1)d
a10 = 4 + (10 – 1)2
a10 = 4 + (9)2
a10 = 4 + 18
a10 = 22
Therefore, 22 is the 10th term of the arithmetic
sequence.
Activity 2
A. Determine whether the sequence is arithmetic
or not. If it is, find the common difference and the
next three terms.
1. 2, 5, 8, 11,…
2. 2, -4, 6, -8, 10,…
3. -6, -10, -14, -18,…
4. 40, 42, 44, 46,…
5. 1.2, 1.8, 2.4,…
Activity 2

B. Find the term indicated in each


of the
following arithmetic sequences.
1. 2, 4, 6, … 15th term
_______
2. 13, 16, 19, 22, … 25th term
Arithmetic means

The terms between any


two nonconsecutive
terms of an arithmetic
sequence are known as
arithmetic means.

and 32.
2.Insert 3 arithmetic means between -16
and 4.
3.Insert 3 arithmetic means between -16
and -8.
Bonus points

1. Insert 1 arithmetic mean


between a and b.
2. Insert 2 arithmetic means
between x+y and 4x – 2y.
