Formula: M= a + b / 2
Examples:
(arithmetic mean) = (a1+a2+a3+ . . . +an)/n Insert three arithmetic means between 4 and 28. (
We can use the APA Method but it is for odd numbers
This is one way to find a representative value for only.)
a set of numbers. As a result, we only need to
work with one number (the arithmetic mean) 4 , _____ , ______ , _____ , 28
instead of a larger data set when it is appropriate
to do so. ( add the first and last term then divide the sum into 2
to get the middle term.)
4 , _____ , ______ , _____ , 28 Find the value of x when the arithmetic mean of
3x+1 and 4x+9 is 2x+11.
M= 2x+11 M= a+b / 2
28 + 4 / 2 = 32/ 2
a= 3x+1
( add the first and middle term then divide the sum into 2
to get the second term.) b= 4x+9
4 , _____ , 16 , _____ , 28 1 2
( add the last and middle term then divide the sum into 2 2(2x+11)= 3x+1+4x+9
to get the fourth term.)
4x+22 = 3x+1+4+9
16 + 28 /2 = 44/2
4x-3x-4x = 1+9-22
4x-7x = 10-22
4 , 10, 16 , _____ , 28
-3x = -12
Final answer :
-3x -3
x=4
4 , 10, 16, 22, 28
M = 2 ( 4 ) +11
= 8+11
M= 19
Find the 25th term in the sequence 5,11,17,23

Prosody. It was named after Leonardo Pisano
“Fibonacci” he is an Italian.
Formula: Sn =n/2 { 2a1 +(n-1)d}
Find the sum of the first ten terms of the arithmetic Examples :
sequence 3,6,9,12. ( Finite )
Find the sum of the first six fibonacci numbers
Sn =n/2 { 2a1 +(n-1)d} 1,1,2,3,5,8…..
S10 =10/2 { 2(3) +(10-1)3}
S10 =5 { 6+(9)3} Fn= Fn-1 + Fn-2
S10 =5 { 6+27}
S10 =5 { 33}
S10 = 165
Sn =n/2 ( an+a1 )
S100 =100/2 ( 100+1 )
S100 = 50 ( 101 )
S100 = 5050
G Find the 4th term of the geometric sequence -8,
16, -32 .
Gn= a1(rn-1)
Geometric sequence G4= -8 (-24-1)
A sequence in which each term (after the first G4=- 8 (-23)
one) bears a fixed ratio to its previous term or G4= -8 (-8)
a sequence in which each term is obtained by G4= 64
multiplying the preceding term by a non zero
constant or has a common ratio.
