Module 1 Lesson 2 - Activity 12
Do the following:
2. Compare and contrast arithmetic and geometric sequences using a two-column chart.
3. Given the geometric sequence 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32…., think of a real-life situation which represents
this sequence (group activity through “Power of Four”).
4. Find the value of x so that x+2, 5x+1, x+11 will form a geometric sequence. Justify your answer.
Find the sum of the first 10 terms of the given sequence.
6. The World Health Organization (WHO) reported that about 16 million adolescent girls between
15 and 19 years old of age give birth each year. Knowing the adverse effects of adolescent
childbearing on the health of the mothers as well as their infants, a group of students from
Magiting High School volunteered to help the government in its prevention of early pregnancy by
giving lectures to 7 barangays about the WHO Guidelines on teenage pregnancy. The group
started in Barangay 1 and 4 girls attended the lecture. Girls from other Barangays heard about it,
so 8 girls attended from Barangay 2, 16 from Barangay 3, and so on.
a. Make a table representing the number of adolescent girls who attended the lecture from
Barangay 1 to Barangay 7 assuming that the number of attendees doubles at each barangay.
b. Analyze the data in a table and create a formula. Use the formula to justify your data in the
table.
c. Because people who heard about the lecture given by the group thought that it would be
beneficial to them, five more different barangays requested the group to do the lectures for
them. If the number of young girls who will listen to the lecture from these 5 barangays will
increase in the same manner as that of the first 7 barangays, determine the total number of
girls who will benefit from the lecture.
