3 EXAMPLE OF ARITHMETIC SEQUENCE

1) 1) a3=10 a5=40 (find the 15th term)

2.)a7=28 a13=20 (find the 15th term)

an=a1+(n-1)d

a7=a1+(7-1)d

28=a1+6d

Equation # 1

an=a1+(n-1)d

a13=a1+(13-1)d

20=a1+12d

Equation

28=a1+6d 20=a1+12d

3.) a1=-10 d=15 (find the 3th term) a3=a1+(n-1)d a3=-10+(3-1) a3=-10+(2) a3=-10+ a3=

a3=

3 EXAMPLE OF harmonic SEQUENCE

1)a2=1/6 ; a4=1/12 (find the 13th term)an=a1+(n-1)d a2=a1+(2-1) 5=a1+(1) 5=a1+ 5-3=a 2=a1 ; a1= a13=a1(n-1)d a13=2+(12-1) =2+(11) =2+ a13=

2.)a3=1/5 a5=1/25 (find the 9th term) an=a1+(n-1)d a3=a1+(3-1)d 5=a1+2d Equation # an=a1+(n-1)d a5=a1+(5-1)d 25=a1+4d Equation # 5=a1+2d 25=a1+4d
