Sequences
Muhtasari
A sequence is an ordered list of numbers that follows a rule. You meet sequences everywhere in mathematics: the multiples of 7, the square numbers, the Fibonacci numbers. On the Edexcel IGCSE, you need to continue a sequence from a given rule, spot the pattern in a sequence of integers, and write an expression for the nth term of an arithmetic (linear) sequence.
This lesson starts with term-to-term rules (where each term depends on the one before) and position-to-term rules (where each term depends on its position number). You will then learn how to find the nth-term formula for arithmetic sequences by inspection and, at Higher tier, use the formal notation \(a + (n - 1)d\) and the sum formula for arithmetic series.
Malengo
- Generate terms of a sequence using term-to-term and position-to-term definitions of the sequence
- Find subsequent terms of an integer sequence and the rule for generating it
- Use linear expressions to describe the nth term of arithmetic sequences
- [Higher] Understand and use common difference (d) and first term (a) in an arithmetic sequence
- [Higher] Know and use nth term = a + (n - 1)d
- [Higher] Find the sum of the first n terms of an arithmetic series (Sn)
