nth term of an Arithmetic Sequence
An arithmetic sequence is a sequence is a
sequence where the next term after the
first is obtained by adding a constant
number called common difference (d).
The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is given by:

Let’s Team up! Group 1
This group activity TEAM SIPNAYAN
needs two groups.
Divide your section into
two groups.
Group 2

TEAM MATHEMATICS
Mechanics Questions:
Team Sipnayan
Each group will Find the 18th term of the
answer the different sequence that has a first
problem. the term of 9 and a common
difference of 6.
teacher will give you
5 minutes to solve
the problem and Team Mathematics
also the teacher will
In the arithmetic
give each group 5 sequence: 7, 15, 23, 31, …, find
minutes to explain n if an = 167
their answer.
How can supply the missing term if the missing
term are in the first term using the nth terms of
the arithmetic sequence?

For Example:
Find the first term of a sequence that has a
second term of -3, a third term of 5, and a
common difference of 4.
{ __, -3, 5 }
Find the first term of a sequence that has a second term of -3, a third term of 5,
and a common difference of 4. { __, -3, 5 }
Problem Solving
Real-Life Situation
After one second, a rocket is 30 feet above the
ground. After another second it is 85 feet above
the ground. Then after another second, it is
already 140 feet above the ground. If it
continues to rise at this rate, how many feet
above the ground will the rocket be after 16
seconds?
