C. Presenting Examples/ Instances of the The set objects in the priming activity llustrative Example: A sequence is a function whose
New Lesson are called sequences. Consider the rule form of domain is the finite set {1, 2, 3,…, n}
the sequence
 Illustrative Example: an = 7n – 4. or the infinite set {1, 2, 3,…}.
Identify if the set of each object
shows a pattern or not then find the If we are asked to get the Example:
next term. first five terms of the
1. sequence, we have a 1 2 3 4 5
a1= 7(1) – 4 = 3
2. 0, a2= 7(2) – 4 = 10 an 3 -1 1.5 10
4, a3= 7(3) – 4 = 17
8, 12, 16, ___... a4= 7(4) – 4 = 24 This finite sequence has 5 terms. We
a5= 7(5) – 4 = 31 may use the notation a1, a2, a3, …, an
3. 9, 4, -1, -6, -11, ____ to denote a(1), a(2), a(3)…a(n)
Therefore, the sequence respectively.
4. 1, 3, 9, 27, 81, _____ can also be denoted as
3, 10, 17, 24, 31. In Grade 10, we often encounter
5. 160, 80, 40, 20,10, ___ sequences that form a pattern such
as that found in the sequence below.

Example:

a 1 2 3 4…

an 4 7 10 13…

The above sequence is an infinite

sequence where
an = 3n + 1
D. Discussing new concepts and Guide Questions: How do you generate a sequence Find the nth term of each sequence
practicing new Skills #1 from a given rule/nth term?
1. What pattern is shown in every 1. 6, 11, 16, 21, 26
item? 2. 2, 10, 18, 26, 34
2. If the pattern continues in each 3. 8, 6, 4, 2, 10
of the item, what will
be the next item?
E. Discussing new concepts and A sequence which has no definite Given the following nth term, supply How did you find the activity?
practicing new Skills #2 number of terms is called sequence. each blank by a correct answer

generate the pattern.
Ex. 2, 4, 6, 8, … How did you find the nth term of each
a. Given an = 2(n+1), list the first 5 number?
terms of the sequence.

Solution:

if n = 1

a__ = 2(__+1) Substitute n

a1 = 2(__) Add the terms inside the

parenthesis

a1 = ___ Multiply the factors

Do the same procedure if n = 2, n =

3, n = 4 and n = 5. Then, list the
sequence below.

___, ___, ___, ___, ___

b. Given an = (12)−1 , generate a

sequence with 4 terms.

Solution:

if n = 1

a__ = (12)___−1 Substitute the value

of n 4

a1 = (12)___ Subtract the exponent

a1 = ____ Simplify the exponent and

the fraction

Do the same procedure if n = 2, n = 3

and n = 4 then, list the sequence
below.

H. Making Generalizations and Let the students make a summary of Let the students make a summary of Let the students make a summary of A sequence is a function whose
Abstractions about the Lesson the lesson about the sequence. the lesson about the sequence. the lesson about the sequence. domain is a finite set of positive
integers {1, 2, 3, …, n} or an infinite
set {1, 2, 3, …}

Each element or object in the

sequence is called term.

A sequence having last term is called

finite sequence while a sequence
with no last term is called infinite
sequence.

Sequences may come in rule form.

These are sequences stated in
general or nth terms.
