Determine each of the following below as
ARITHMETIC OR NOT.

1. 15, 19, 23, 27, 31 - ARITHMETIC; d = 4


2. 40, 20, 10, 5 - NOT
3. -6, -1, 4, 9, 14 - ARITHMETIC; d = 5
Arithmetic sequence is a sequence where
every term after the first is obtained by adding a
constant called the common difference.
Finding the nth Term of an Arithmetic
Sequence
If a1 and d are known, it is easy to find any
term in arithmetic sequence by using the
rule an = a1 + ( n – 1 ) d
where an = the nth term
a1 = the first term
n = the number of terms
d = common difference
Ex. 1 What is the 21st term of the arithmetic
sequence 4, 7, 10, 13, … ?
Given: a1 = 4 d = 3 n = 21
Formula: an = a1 + ( n – 1 ) d
a21 = 4 + ( 21 – 1 ) 3
a21 = 4 + ( 20 ) 3
a21 = 4 + 60
a21 = 64
Ex. 2 What is the 14th term of the arithmetic
sequence 5, 7, 9, 11, … ?
Given: a1 = 5 d=2 n = 14
Formula: an = a1 + ( n – 1 ) d
a14 = 5 + ( 14 – 1 ) 2
a14 = 5 + ( 13 ) 2
a14 = 5 + 26
a14 =31
Ex. 3 What is the 30th term of the arithmetic
sequence 5, 9, 13, 17, … ?
Given: a1 = 5 d=4 n = 30
Formula: an = a1 + ( n – 1 ) d
a30 = 5 + ( 30 – 1 ) 4
a30 = 5 + ( 29 ) 4
a30 = 5 + 116
a30 =121
Ex. 4 Determine the 45th term of the
arithmetic sequence 18, 9, 0, …
Given: a1 = 18 d = -9 n = 45
Formula: an = a1 + ( n – 1 ) d
a45 = 18 + ( 45 – 1 )(-9)
a45 = 18 + ( 44 )(-9)
a45 = 18 + -396
a45 = -378
Independent Activity 1B
1. Give the arithmetic sequence of
5 terms if the first term is 8 and
the last term is 100.
2. How many terms are there in an
arithmetic sequence whose first
term is -3 and common
difference is 4, and last term is
23?
ARITHMETIC MEANS
The arithmetic mean, also called the average
or average value. These are terms in between two
nonconsecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence.
4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24
4 and 24 are called
arithmetic extremes
Arithmetic Means
8 is the 1st arithmetic mean 16 is the 3rd arithmetic mean
12 is the 2nd arithmetic mean 20 is the 4th arithmetic mean
If two nonconsecutive terms of an
arithmetic are given, the formula for the
common difference is, OR

𝒂𝒏 − 𝒂𝒌 𝒂𝒏 − 𝒂𝟏
𝒅= 𝒅 =
𝒏 −𝒌 𝒏 −𝟏
Where: 𝒂𝒏 = 𝑙𝑎𝑠𝑡 𝑔𝑖𝑣𝑒𝑛 𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑚
𝒂𝒌 = 𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑠𝑡 𝑔𝑖𝑣𝑒𝑛 𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑚
d = common difference K = position of
n = position of 𝑎𝑛 𝒂𝒌

2. Insert three arithmetic means between 8 and 16.
