ACTIVITY 3
Arithmetic Sequence
I. Find the next three terms in each sequence.
an=an-1 +d
1. 18, 11, 4, ...
common difference = d = 11-18 = -7
a4 = 4 + (-7)= - 3
a5= -3 + (-7)= - 10
a6= 10 + (-7)=-17
next three terms are -3, -10,-17
2. 23, 18, 13, 8, 3, ...
common difference d = 18-13 = -5
A6= ª₁ + d = 3 + (-5) = - 2
a7 - 2 + (-5) = -7
A8 = -7 + (-5) = - 12
next three terms are -2,-7, -12
3. 14, 34, 54, 74, 94, ...
d = common difference = 34-14 = 20
a6 94 + 20 = 114
a>= 114 + 20 = 134
as 134 + 20 = 154
next three terms are 114, 134, 154
4. 7, 2, -3, -8, -13, -18,...
5. 15, 11, 7, 3, −1, −5, −9, ...
