01 Section 1 pp002-013.qxd 1.1 26/8/03 9:59 am Page 2 Key words Sequences Find terms of a sequence and say whether it is ascending or descending, finite or infinite Find the next term in a sequence of numbers or shapes sequence term consecutive infinite finite A number sequence is a set of numbers in a given order, such as 1, 4, 7, 10, … Each number in a sequence is called a term . Terms next to each other are called consecutive terms. Sequences may be ascending (e.g. 2, 4, 6, 8, …) or descending (e.g. 18, 15, 12, 9, …). The sequence 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ... is infinite . We could go on counting forever. The sequence 10, 12, 14 ... 98 is finite . The dots mean that there are missing terms and that the sequence continues in the same way until the final value, 98, is reached. Example 1 Here is a sequence of diagrams. a) Spot the pattern and draw the next two terms in the sequence. b) Is the sequence finite or infinite? a) Each time two more dots are added. This is the fifth term. This is the sixth term. b) The sequence is infinite. Example 2 The first term of a sequence is 12; each term in the sequence is found by subtracting 4 from the previous term. a) Write down the first five terms of the sequence. b) Is this sequence ascending or descending? First term 12 Second term 12 4 8 Third term 8 4 4 Fourth term 4 4 0 Fifth term 0 4 4 a) 12, 8, 4, 0, 4 b) The sequence is descending.

Sequences 3 01 Section 1 pp002-013.qxd 1.2 26/8/03 9:59 am Page 4 Key words Generating sequences generate term term-to-term rule Generate a sequence given a starting point and a rule to go from term-to-term Use the rule to find a term in a sequence without finding all the values in between. Generating a sequence means writing down the terms of the sequence. To do this you need to know the pattern that the sequence follows. To generate a sequence you may be given a starting point and a rule that connects one term to the next. This is called the term-to-term rule . For example, for this sequence: 5, 11, 17, 23, 29, 35, … the first term of the sequence is 5 and the term-to-term rule is ‘add 6’. Since we add 6 each time, we can compare the sequence to the multiples of 6. ⴙ6 ⴙ6 ⴙ6 ⴙ6 ⴙ6 Sequence: 5, 11, 17, 23, 29, 35, … Multiples of 6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, … We can see that this sequence is the multiples of 6 minus 1. We can write this sequence like this: 1st term 2nd term 3rd term 4th term 5th term 1615 2 6 1 11 3 6 1 17 4 6 1 23 5 6 1 29 By following the pattern it is easy to find any term in the sequence. For example, the 65th term is 65 6 1 389 Example A sequence starts with 2 and the term-to-term rule is ‘add 4’. a) Find the first five terms of the sequence.

Fourth Term 10 4 14 Fifth Term 14 4 18 a) 2, 6, 10, 14, 18 b) Each term is 2 less than the multiples of 4. So the tenth term will be 10 4 2 38 Since we add 4 each time we can compare this sequence to the multiples of 4: Sequence 2, 6, 10, 14, 18, ... Multiples of 4 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, ...

Investigation The first two terms in a sequence are: 1, 2 a) Find and describe a term-to-term rule connecting these terms and then write the next three terms in the sequence. b) There is another rule that could connect the first two terms of this sequence, what is it?

For example, the sequence whose first term is 4 and term-to-term rule is ‘add 3’ is 4, 7, 10, 13, … Another way of describing a sequence is by giving a rule that connects the term number and the term. We call this the general term . Look at the sequence 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 … . The difference between terms is 2 so we compare it to the multiples of 2. The sequence is the multiples of 2 add 6. 1st term 1 2 6 2nd term 2 2 6 3rd term 3 2 6 50th term 50 2 6 General term term number 2 6 You can use the general term to find the value of any term in the sequence.

This is called algebra . If you chose a number and added 5, you could represent this by writing: x 5 It doesn’t matter which letter you use. It is just a method of writing an unknown number. We call x 5 an algebraic expression . The sentence ’I choose a number, subtract 10 and get 12’ can be written: x 10 12 This is called an algebraic equation since it contains an unknown (x) and an sign.
