2
Sequences and Series The study of order…..
3
Suppose you were the “Fry-Guy” at McDonalds for the summer… Summer jobs?
4
The Graph of your bank account would look like: At your job, you were able to bank $125.00 per week for 8 weeks This relationship can be represented in different ways
5
Week $ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 1000 0
6
Your pay can also be represented with a function (where we begin) To do this, we need to examine the pattern of the numbers 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
7
Examine the following patterns to predict what the next symbol will be…. OTTFF…..
8
M T W T F S…. JFM A M…
9
Given any pattern, the simplest progression will be the implication.
10
These examples are called Sequences 8421… 1827 … 02612… 13579… 2481632 …
11
A number sequence is a set of numbers, usually separated by commas, arranged in an order. The first term in t 1, the second term t 2, and so on…
12
Write the sequence given the formula for the nth term t n = 3n – 2 Find the 10 th term
13
Write the formula for the given sequence 4,7,10,13
14
Pg 433 1[a,c,e] 2[a,c,e,g] 3,4 [odd] 5a Do not find the formula
15
The implicated sum of the terms of any sequence is called a SERIES SERIES 1+3+5+7+9… 13579… SEQUENCE
16
These sequences can be divided into 2 groups….any suggestions? 8421… 0510 15… 13579… 24816 32 … + X
17
Arithmetic 8421… 13579… Geometric Add 2 every step Multiply by 0.5
18
A Geometric Sequence What if your pay was doubled every week? What would the results look like in that case?
19
Weeks Pay 1 125 2 250 3 500 4 1000 5 2000 6 4000 7 8000 8 16000
20
Week $ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 16000 0
21
1 3 5 7 9 … In an arithmetic sequence, terms are generated using a constant common difference
22
Example 1) The sequence 2,9,16… is given; determine the 20 th term. A Mechanical solution - =2,9,16,23,30,37,…135
23
Pg 12 1,2 4,5,7,8,9 12,14,15
