Introductory Message
This module is carefully designed to continually facilitate learners to

achieve mastery on desired competencies and develop their 21st century
skills. This module consists of essential components developed appropriately
for self-instructional mode of learning. The components come in various
2.0
developmental purposes that are designed to diagnose (pretest), recall and
associate (review), discuss, explain and even provide practice activities,
ON
enrichment tasks, assessments and answer keys.
SI
ER
Upon taking the pretest, determine whether you need to take or skip
this module. At 100% accuracy, you possess the mastery of the topic in the
module; hence, you don’t need to take it and you may choose to proceed to
-V
S
the next module. At 99% and below, you are recommended to undertake the
LE
module to acquire the necessary skills.

DU
MO
Though allowed, adult supervision is limited only to providing

assistance in accomplishing this module. It is highly recommended that YOU,
N
the learner, should try to engage independently in doing the different tasks
IO
for you to become a critical thinker and problem solver which are the twin
T
RA
goals of Mathematics.
E
EN
May this module be utilized to its fullest extent in the purpose of

learning the competencies construed as Most Essential for a learner in this
tG
level.

Some real-life situations require the application of sequences. One example of arithmetic
sequence in real life is the celebration of people’s birthday. The common difference between
N
consecutive celebrations of the same person is one year. Another example is when you are waiting
IO
for a bus, assuming that the traffic is moving at a constant speed you can predict when the next
T
bus will come.

RA
Arithmetic sequence is present almost in all aspects of our lives. We must be aware how it
E
can be used in our daily lives. Having knowledge about this sequence can make our life meaningful
EN
and fruitful.
tG
Sequence and order in everyday life gives us stability and helps us think when sequencing
1s
is helpful. An example of geometric sequence in real life is the multiplication of bacteria. We have
also experienced that geometric series can be used to calculate how much money you have saved
in the bank.

What was the amount of her last deposit? How much was her total allowance after 52
EN
deposits?
tG
Solution:
1s
10, 13, 16,…form an arithmetic sequence where a1=10; d=3; n=52
Formula: an = a1 + (n-1) d
a52=10+(52-1)3

a52 =163
