LEARNING
GOALS

Module 1: The nth Term

At the end of this module, the learner will be able to:

Identify the missing term in a sequence.

Formulate the rule in finding the nth term

using different strategies.
 MODULE
THE NTH TERM 1

LESSON 1: THE NTH TERM

LESSON OVERVIEW

Patterns are everywhere. Some situations

your encounter every day follow a pattern. Your
savings from your school allowance, the battery
life of your phone, and your running speed at
different times can all follow a pattern.
In mathematics, sequence of numbers have
patterns to follow. In this module, you will be able
to learn how to find the patterns in a sequence of
number. Also, find the missing term in a
sequence.

LESSON content
Sequence of Number

Sequence - a list of numbers or objects

following a rule or set of rules called
pattern.

1
 MODULE
THE NTH TERM 1

Pattern - set of rules in a sequence.

Term - each element composed in a
sequence.

Example: In the sequence 4, 8, 12, 16, ..., the

first term is 4, the second is 8, and so on.

The nth Term of a Sequence

The nth term of a sequence is a general

expression used to determine the number
in the nth position of a sequence.

Example 1: Determine the rule for the nth

term of the sequence 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, ..., n.

Solution:

Step 1: Organize your data in table.

2
 MODULE
THE NTH TERM 1

Step 2: Look for a pattern. Notice that

the number 6 is always added to the
previous term to get the next term.

6 12 18 24 30

+6 +6 +6 +6

Step 3: Rewrite each term as a sum of

6s following the pattern in step 2.

3
 MODULE
THE NTH TERM 1

Step 4: Write the pattern in factored

form.

Therefore, the nth term of the sequence 6,

12, 18, 24, 30, ..., is 6n.

Example 2: Determine the nth term of the

number sequence 7, 11, 15, 19, 23, ..., n.

Solution:

Step 1: Find the pattern for the number

sequence.

4
 MODULE
THE NTH TERM 1

7 11 15 19 23

+4 +4 +4 +4

You see that adding 4 to the previous term

yields the next term.

Step 2: Rewrite each term as a sum of

4s.

Step 3: Write the pattern using a factor

of 4.

5
 MODULE
THE NTH TERM 1

Therefore, the rule for the nth term of the sequence

is 3 + 4n or 4n + 3
