3 RADIO TEACHER: Good day learners! This is Edukaradyo sa A.O. Floirendo: Mathematics 10. I
am Renie Capuyan your radio teacher for this episode. I hope you’re full of enthusiasm for
another learning today.
5 RADIO TEACHER: So, how are you today? Are you prepared for today’s lesson?
6 SFX: STUDENTS’ YEAH
7 RADIO TEACHER: That’s a good jumpstart! As B.B. King quoted, “The beautiful thing about
learning is that nobody can take it away from you.”
9 RADIO TEACHER: Let’s see how keen you were in the previous lesson? Can you recall the title
of our previous lesson? (PAUSE) Correct! You studied the ______________...
11 RADIO TEACHER: This time, let’s check your quiz during the last episode. You were
______________.
13 RADIO TEACHER: Count your correct answers. Who got five? Four? Three? Two? One? Bravo!
You did it well. That marks an energized beginning for today’s lesson. All you just need to do is
to review every detail. How about those who got 5? (PAUSE)Congratulations! Keep up the
good work!
15 Radio Teacher: To be certain that everyone is ready for another academic endeavor, may I
request everyone to raise your hands on the air. Then wave them five times. Alright, let’s do it.
Raise your hands. (PAUSE) Wave five times. One, two, three, four, and five! (Pause)There you
go! You’re cool and pro!
17 Radio Teacher: Alright, our 1st activity is to develop your numeracy skills. Let’s do addition of
integers this time.
18 54+(-10)= Ans. 44 In this part numeracy skills on
addition of integers are being
19 -10+45= Ans. 35 developed.
20 11+12= Ans. 23
21 -20+-5= Ans. -25
22 5+10= Ans. 15
24 Radio Teacher: Congratulations for those who got 5 correctly.
26 Radio Teacher: Alright, let’s us start our new topic. Today will be discussing about Finding the
nth Term of an Arithmetic Sequence. Open your Module 3 in page 5. In the previous module,
we define arithmetic sequence and give the next term by adding a constant number. And now,
what about if the problem is to find the 100 th term or the 250th term? Can you find the terms?
Using the process that is illustrated above will take much of your time and effort. There is a
short cut in doing this and that is one of the foci of this module.
28 Radio Teacher: Before we find other higher terms of a sequence, let us first find lower terms. I
the arithmetic sequence: 3,8,13, 18…; what is the 15 th term?
30 Radio Teacher: By adding the common difference to each of the preceding terms, we get the
following values.
n 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15
an 3 8 13 18 23 28 33 38 43 48 53 58 63 68 73
32 Radio Teacher: Thus, the 15th term is 73. However, using this procedure to get any higher nth
term would be tedious. Thus, a formula is necessary to find any nth term.
34 Radio Teacher: The nth term of an arithmetic sequence with first term a1 and common
difference as d, the formula is written as a n=a1+d(n-1).
36 Radio Teacher: Let us apply this formula in solving the following examples.
38 Radio Teacher: Number 1. Find the 21st term of the arithmetic sequence: 6,9,12,15,…
39 From the sequence, a1=6, d=3, and n=21.
40 Using the formula, substitute these values.
41 So, a21=6+3(21-1)
42 a21=6+3(21-1)
43 a21=6+3(20)
44 a21=6+60
45 a21=66
46 Thus, the 21st term is 66.
48 Radio Teacher: Example number 2. In the arithmetic sequence: 7,10,13,16,… find n if a n=304.
49 From the sequence, a1=7, d=3, and an=304
50 Using the formula, substitute these values.
51 an=a1+d(n-1)
52 304=7+3(n-1)
53 304=7+3n-3
54 304=4+3n
55 300-4=3n
56 300=3n
57 n=100
58 Thus, 304 is the 100th term of the sequence.
60 Radio Teacher: Example number 3. The 3rd term of an arithmetic sequence is 8 and the 16 th
term is 47. Find the d, a1 and the 71st term.
62 Radio Teacher: From the sequence, a3=8 and a16=47
63 These imply that:
64 a3=a1+d(3-1)
65 8=a1+d(3-1)
66 8=a1+2d Eq.1
67 a16=a1+d(16-1)
68 47=a1+d(16-1)
69 47=a1+15d Eq. 2
71 Radio Teacher: Using Eq. 1 and Eq 2, solve for a1 and d. By subtracting Eq. 2 by Eq.1, then:
72 47=a1+15d minus 8=a1+2d
73 47-9=39, 15d-2d=13d, thus d=3 because 39 divided by 13 is 3.
74 To solve for a1, substitute d=3 to either Eq. 1 or Eq.2. Let us use Eq. 1
75 8=a1+2(3)
76 8=a1+6
77 a1=2
78 Thus, the nth term of the arithmetic sequence is a n=2+3(n-1).
79 Using an=2+3(n-1), we can solve for the 71st term.
80 a71=2+3(71-1)
81 a71=2+3(70)
82 a71=2+210
83 a71=212
85 Radio Teacher: Are you still with me?
86 SFX: OH YES
87 Radio Teacher: Great! Now, let’s do the Recap. Alright, what is the formula in determining the
nth term of a sequence. Very good! It is an=a 1+d(n-1), where n is the nth term or the last term,
a1 is the 1st term and the d is the constant difference.
89 Radio Teacher: Alright! Let’s have additional activity.
This is the Enrichment
Activity
91 Radio Teacher: Insert 4 arithmetic means between 5 and 25.
93 Radio Teacher: Ok class, when we say arithmetic means these are numbers in between two
numbers. Thus, we have to look for 4 numbers in between 5 and 25.
95 Radio Teacher: Since we are required to insert 4 terms, then there will be 6 terms in all.
96 Let a1=5 and a6=25. We will insert a2,a3,a4,a5 as written in order as 5, a2,a3,a4,a5,25
97 We need to get the common difference. Let us use a 6=a1+5d to solve for d. Substituting the
given values for a6 and a1, we obtain 25=5+5d. So, d=4.
99 Radio Teacher: Using the value of d, we can now get the values of a 2,a3,a4, and a5.
100 Thus, a2=5+4(1)=9
101 a3=5+4(2)=13
102 a4=5+4(3)=17, and
103 a5=5+4(4)=21
104 So, the Arithmetic means between 5 and 25 are 9,13,17, and 21. Is clear, students?
106 Radio Teacher: Alright! At this point, you know already some essential things about arithmetic
sequence. Now let’s assess if you have really understood our discussion. Are you ready for a
quiz, students?
108 Radio Teacher: For your quiz, kindly write your solutions and in a 1-whole sheet of yellow
paper. Find the specified nth term of each arithmetic sequence.
109 1. 2,5,8,…; 9th term
110 2. 3,5,7,…; 20th term
111 3. 1,1/2,0,…; 16th term
112 4. 19th term of the arithmetic sequence if a1=25 and d=2
113 5. Find the 15th term of the sequence if a8=5 and a21=-60
115 Radio Teacher: Congratulations! You are done with your quiz. You will get to know your score
in our next episode. So, don’t miss more learning adventures next time. Likewise, don’t stop
challenging yourself. There are more activities waiting for you.
117 Radio Teacher: Alright! My congratulations for a job well done today. On behalf of my co-
teacher in Mathematics 10, Maam Cecilia Estilo, this has been Renie Capuyan your radio
teacher leaving you the words, “All is well, when you study well! Stay tune!
