SLA - Math 10 Week 1

This document provides an overview of a mathematics lesson on arithmetic sequences for 10th grade students. It outlines 5 daily activities for students to complete over the course of a week to learn about generating arithmetic sequences, determining the nth term, and calculating the sum of terms. The activities include examples of finding missing terms in sequences, identifying the nth term of a sequence given a pattern, and using formulas to calculate the sum of arithmetic sequences. The lesson concludes with a quiz for students to determine which sequences are arithmetic and calculate sums.

sequence Examples will be given to you.
1.Find the first 4terms of the sequence given the
II. OBJECTIVES nth term.
At the end of this week, you will be able to: An = n + 3
a. Generate and illustrate the arithmetic Solution: If n =1, A1 = 1+3 = 4
sequence If n =2 A2 = 2 +3=5
b. determine the nth term and sum of the If n= 3 ,A3 =3+3 =6
terms of a given arithmetic sequence. If n= 4 A4 = 3+4 =7
So the first 4 terms 4,5,6,7
III. DEVELOPMENT OF THE LESSON

Day 1: Good day grade 10 students.. hope you are Day 2 -3: In your activity yesterday you were asked

You are now ready to start the first lesson The above activity illustrates a sequence
in Mathematics 10. Today you are going to answer where the difference between any consecutive
an activity to lead you better understanding the key number terms is constant.This constant term is
concepts of sequences, particularly an arithmetic called the common difference and the said
sequence.. sequence is called an arithmetic sequence.
Get your Learner’s Manual and let us Example:
start!!! The sequences 13,5,7…Common difference is 2
Answer Activity 1: What’s next ? on page 10. d – common difference
(Answer odd numbers only( 1, 3, 5, ). Write From 3 -1 =2, 5-3 =2 7-5 =2
answer/solution in your paper.
An arithmetic sequence is a sequence where
To answer Activity 1, please study the following every term after the first term is obtained by
examples: adding a constant called a common difference.
What’s next?
1.) What is the next number 2,3, ___ An = A1 + ( n-1 ) d
Answer: 4 where A1 – first term
2.) What is the 3rd number?15,20, ____ An- last term
Answer: 25 n- number of terms
3.) What is the next number and 5th number ? d- common difference
-3 -2,4,-8,____ Answer : 16 & -32 Example: What is the 8th term of the arithmetic
sequence 3,5,7,9,….?
Were you able to find the patterns and get the next So A1=3, n=8,d=5-3=2
number n the sequence? .
Let us now give the formal definition of a sequence. Solution: A8 = 3 + (8-1)2
= 3 +(7)2
=3 +14 =17 8th term
So answer activity 6: What is missing ? on page
14 number 1,3,5,& 7..Write your answer in your
notebook/paper.

Day 4: Yesterday you have studied on how to find


the missing terms of an arithmetic sequence..
Today you are going to Answer Activity 7:
Summing up on page 15 (Answer odd numbers
only). Write answer/solution in your paper.
Formula of the sum of arithmetic sequence.

Sn =n/2 ( A1 + An ) or

Sn = n/2 (2 A1 + (n-1)d

Example 1.Find the sum of the first 6 terms of


the arithmetic sequence 2,4,6…
Solution:

S6 = 6/2 { 2(2) }+ ( 6-1)2


=3( 4 + 10 )
= 3( 14 ) = 42

Key answer: 1. 22 3. -15 5. -57

Day 5: QUIZ

Determine which of the following


sequence is Arithmetic and find the sum.
1.) 3,7,11,15,19
2.) 3,9,27,81
3.) 1,3,5,7,9
4.) 1.1/2,1,-1/2
5.) -2,6,-12

Congratulations. You are done with your week 1


tasks.
