Unit 6: Sequences & Series Sec 1: Arithmetic & Geometric Sequences Homework: pg 663 #1-20 Learning Target: I will find the pattern in a sequence and determine if it is arithmetic, geometric or neither
Ex 1: Using a Pattern in Real Life Answer: C
Define the Following (pg 659): Major Terms for the Unit Definition Example Sequence Arithmetic Sequence Common Difference Geometric Sequence Common Ratio Minor Terms for the Unit Definition Example Term Finite Sequence Infinite Sequence
Ex 2: Identifying Arithmetic Sequences Determine whether each sequence is Arithmetic: 5, -6, -17, -28,… -4, 12, 28, 42, … -6, 3, 12, 21,…
Ex 3: Identifying Geometric Sequence Determine whether each sequence is geometric. -2, 6, -18, 54, … 8, 16, 24, 32, … -8, 2, -0.5, 0.125, …
Ex 4: Finding a Pattern Find the pattern and give the next 4 terms. Tell if the sequence is arithmetic, geometric or neither. 16, 24, 36, 54, … 1, 4, 9, 16, … 23, 17, 11, 5, …
Stump Your Buddy: Create your own sequence. When you are finished, exchange your sequence with a friend a find each other’s pattern. You will: Find the next 4 terms. Determine if the sequence is arithmetic, geometric or neither.
