Pasig City Hall
The ground floor of the Pasig City Hall is 6-meter
high and each floor above it is 4-meter high. If the
Pasig City Hall has 8 floors, how high is it?

With your partner, create a table showing the height


of each floor from the ground.

What is the height of the Pasig City Hall?

Around Us
Fare rate for first 4 km of a modernized PUJ under General Community Quarantine
released by LTFRB last April 24, 2020.

Distance Fare
First kilometer 11.00
Second kilometer 12.50
Third kilometer 14.00
Fourth kilometer 15.50

Can we consider this as an example of an arithmetic sequence?


If yes, what is the common difference?

Sequence Fourth kilometer 15.50

Around Us Can we consider this as an example of an arithmetic


sequence?
If yes, what is the common difference?
How much would be the fair if a passenger will get off on
the 10th kilometer?
WHAT IF...?
Find the 25th term of the sequence 1, 5, 9, 13, 17, …

Solution:
Find the general term!
WHAT IF...?
Find the 25th term of the sequence 1, 5, 9, 13, 17, …

It has a common difference (𝑑) of 4.


WHAT IF...?
Find the 25th term of the sequence 1, 5, 9, 13, 17, …
WHAT IF...?
Find the 25th term of the sequence 1, 5, 9, 13, 17, …
In the equation 𝑎25 = 1 + (24)4, we can replace 1 as 𝑎1 and 4 as 𝑑. The number inside the
parentheses, comparing that to the number of terms (n), we could see that it is 1 less than n.
WHAT IF...?
Find the 25th term of the sequence 1, 5, 9, 13, 17, …

Thus, the general term for an arithmetic sequence is
