Takeaways
- 😀 Arithmetic sequences involve a common difference between consecutive terms, while geometric sequences involve a common ratio.
- 📚 The common difference in an arithmetic sequence is found by subtracting a term from the previous term (e.g., 5 - 1 = 4).
- 📈 In a geometric sequence, the common ratio is found by dividing any term by the previous term (e.g., 3 ÷ 1 = 3).
- 🔍 To find the nth term in an arithmetic sequence, use the formula: nth term = first term + (n - 1) * common difference.
- 📐 For the nth term in a geometric sequence, the formula is: nth term = first term * common ratio^(n - 1).
- 🔑 The sum of the first n terms of an arithmetic sequence is given by: Sum = (first term + nth term) / 2 * n.
- 🌟 The sum of the first n terms of a geometric sequence can be calculated using the formula: Sum = first term * (1 - common ratio^n) / (1 - common ratio).
- 📝 Example given for finding the 4th term in an arithmetic sequence: 1 + (4 - 1) * 4 = 13.
- 📉 Example provided for the 4th term in a geometric sequence: 1 * 3^(4 - 1) = 27.
- 📊 Sum of the first four terms in an arithmetic sequence is calculated as: (1 + 13) / 2 * 4 = 28.
- 📈 Sum of the first four terms in a geometric sequence is: 1 * (1 - 3^4) / (1 - 3) = 40.
Q & A
What are the two types of sequences discussed in the video?
-The two types of sequences discussed in the video are arithmetic sequences and geometric sequences.
What is the common difference in an arithmetic sequence?
-The common difference in an arithmetic sequence is the constant amount by which each term is greater than the previous term. For example, in the sequence 1, 5, 9, 13, 17, the common difference is 4.
How do you find the nth term of an arithmetic sequence?
-To find the nth term of an arithmetic sequence, you use the formula: nth term = first term + (n - 1) * common difference.
What is the common ratio in a geometric sequence?
-The common ratio in a geometric sequence is the constant factor by which each term is multiplied to get the next term. For example, in the sequence 1, 3, 9, 27, 81, the common ratio is 3.
How do you determine the nth term of a geometric sequence?
-The nth term of a geometric sequence is determined by the formula: nth term = first term * (common ratio)^(n - 1).
What is the formula for finding the sum of the first n terms of an arithmetic sequence?
-The formula for finding the sum of the first n terms of an arithmetic sequence is: sum = (n / 2) * (first term + nth term).
How do you calculate the sum of the first n terms of a geometric sequence?
-The sum of the first n terms of a geometric sequence is calculated using the formula: sum = first term * (1 - (common ratio)^n) / (1 - common ratio), provided the common ratio is not 1.
What is the difference between the operations used in arithmetic and geometric sequences?
-In arithmetic sequences, the operations used are addition and subtraction, while in geometric sequences, the operations are multiplication and division.
Can you provide an example of finding the fourth term of an arithmetic sequence given the first term and the common difference?
-Sure, if the first term is 1 and the common difference is 4, the fourth term is calculated as: 1 + (4 - 1) * 4 = 1 + 3 * 4 = 1 + 12 = 13.
How would you find the sum of the first four terms of a geometric sequence with a first term of 1 and a common ratio of 3?
-The sum of the first four terms of this geometric sequence is: 1 * (1 - 3^4) / (1 - 3) = 1 * (1 - 81) / (-2) = 40.
What is the significance of the common difference and common ratio in their respective sequences?
-The common difference in an arithmetic sequence determines the amount by which each term increases, while the common ratio in a geometric sequence determines the factor by which each term is multiplied. Both are essential for identifying the pattern and calculating future terms or sums in their respective sequences.

📚 Introduction to Arithmetic and Geometric Sequences
This paragraph introduces the concepts of arithmetic and geometric sequences. It explains that arithmetic sequences involve addition and subtraction with a common difference, exemplified by the sequence 1, 5, 9, 13, 17, where the difference between consecutive terms is consistently 4. For geometric sequences, the operations are multiplication and division, with a common ratio, as illustrated by the sequence 1, 3, 9, 27, where each term is three times the previous one. The paragraph also explains how to find the common difference or ratio by subtracting or dividing any term by its predecessor.
🔍 Calculating Specific Terms in Sequences
The second paragraph delves into the methodology for finding specific terms in both arithmetic and geometric sequences. For arithmetic sequences, the nth term is calculated by adding the common difference to the first term, multiplied by (n-1). The example given finds the fourth term to be 13. In geometric sequences, the nth term is found by multiplying the first term by the common ratio raised to the power of (n-1). The example demonstrates that the fourth term is 27. The paragraph also discusses how to find terms beyond the fourth, such as the 10th or 12th, using the same principles.
📈 Summation of Terms in Arithmetic and Geometric Sequences
This paragraph discusses the formulas for calculating the sum of the first n terms in both arithmetic and geometric sequences. For arithmetic sequences, the sum of the first n terms is found by adding the first and nth terms and then dividing by two. In geometric sequences, the sum is calculated using the formula involving the first term, the common ratio, and the nth term, which can be expressed as either the first term multiplied by the common ratio to the power of (n-1) divided by the common ratio minus one, or as the first term minus the first term times the common ratio to the nth power, all divided by one minus the common ratio. The paragraph provides examples of how to calculate the sum of the first four terms for both sequence types, resulting in 28 for the arithmetic sequence and 40 for the geometric sequence.
📝 Tips for Solving Sequence Problems in Civil Service Exams
The final paragraph offers tips for solving arithmetic and geometric sequence problems in civil service exams. It emphasizes the importance of identifying the common ratio and using it to find the nth term or the sum of the first m terms. The paragraph suggests that understanding the formulas for both types of sequences is crucial for success in these exams. It also encourages reviewing and practicing with various types of sequence problems, including finding the nth term and summing terms, to prepare for the exam.

commutating operations d2i
subtraction
addition
while the tournaments are geometric and
operations
division
pattern now let's take this example
1 5 9 13 17
arithmetic sequence
difference detail this is four bali five
minus one is equals to four
now para makoha nothing next
difference de toi four in other words
nagata you know for
one
40 to 13 paramaging 17.
so this is what we call common
difference
five minus 1 is equals to
common difference or we can take
any term minus previous
term that is equals to common difference
now how about geometric sequence
we divide three divided by one
is equals to three in other words one
times three equals three
nine divided by three is equals to three
therefore we multiply three to three and
that is equals to nine
twenty seven divided by nine is equals
to three
or multiplied and threes and nine
paramagne 27.
81 divided by 27
in other words nag multiplied three
so 27 paramagging 81.
ratio see a sub
2 divided by a sub 1
that is equals to common ratio
or take any number divided by the
previous
number that is equals to common
ratio again
common difference
example nothing that will be five
minus one equals four
nine minus five that is equals to four
thirteen volume any number nothing that
is 13 example 13
minus the previous number in the nine
and that is equals to four
units 17 minus 13 that is equals to

three divided by one is equals
to three nine divided by
three that is equals to three
27 divided by nine that is equals to
three 81 divided by 27
that is equals to 3 ito
common ratio
now let's find let's
find the
nth term
let's find the m term of arithmetic
sequence
and geometric sequence
in arithmetic sequence
any number or the nth term is equals to
a sub 1 first term
plus the nth term
minus 1 multiplied by the common
difference
whilst a geometric
any number or nth term is equals to
a sub 1 or the first term
multiplied by the common ratio raised to
the n term minus 1
example let's find the fourth
term a sub one not in
one unadito
plus n is equals to four
because the fourth term minus one
multiplied by its common difference
by uncommon difference take any number
minus previous number
is equals to common difference
any number let's take nine minus jung
previous num nine i
five that is equals to four
so uncommon difference detail i four
next uh parenthesis
four minus one that is equals to three
tapos multiply nothing and four by
following order of operations we have to
multiply first by gotayo magad
3 times 4 and that is equals to
12. now 1 plus 12 is equals to
13. therefore and fourth
term is equals to 13 which is
tama now let's find the fourth
term also in geometric sequence
and first term little i
one or a sub one at ni one
common ratio nothing about an appearance
a common ratio
take any number divided by the previous
number this is equals to
ratio your common ratio so let's
take nine divided by
three that is equals to three
so your common ratio nothing detail i
three so it on three not only raised
nothing and
four minus one
and term nothing detail i four
next unh
nothing four minus one is equals to
three next exponents
any number multiplied by one
is the same is equal to the same number
so if we do nothing ignoring
three cubed or three in an exponent not
three
this means three times three times
3 and that is equals to 27.
so on fourth term little i 27 which is
27.
in finding the nth term
like example young 10th
term 12th term
number 9
letter n example
tenth term a sub
10 is equals to young first term not in
i won
difference example uncommon difference
dito i
four ganon next company
12th term so a sub
12 equals youngsta first term
plus jung 12 minus one
a multiply musa common difference
now sa geometric naman kung pinahanap

so that will be 10 minus
1
2 again
exponent i 12 then isold
next let's find
the sum sum
of the first
and term
in arithmetic sequence

young first term in multiply mosa
rational race
and term minus um
first term divided by
ratio minus one
from this formula this can also be
written
as a sub one multiplied by
ratio raised to the nth term
minus 1 over
ratio minus 1 and this is
also the same as a sub 1
multiplied by 1 minus
ratio raised to the nth term
over 1 minus ratio

fourth term sums the first
fourth term s four
s sub four tapos jung and nothing i
four e multiply a first term which is

sa sa fourth term anub
and fourth term 13.
this is example nothing given young
fourth
term just in case hindi sha given
um formula

or twelfth term yumaganyan fifth term
fifteenth term in ganyan so going
back because of four multiplied so one
plus thirteen divided
and that is equals to 14.
in multiply mononatin 14
times 4 that is equals to
56 divided by 2
and that is 28. so
ang sums of first fourth term i
twenty eight in other words
one plus five plus nine
plus thirteen this is equals to
twenty eight kapag's sum
of
when we talk
numbers or your missing numbers
anyway
geometric let's find
the sum of the first
fourth term and first number nothing
in multiply nothing's a common ratio
three divided by one equals
three so common ratio nothing i three
now and
four and again because the fourth term
minus one
divided by young ratio not in i
three minus one
uh nothing's exponent three
name exponent na four that means three
times
three times three times 3 and that is
equals to
81. so 81 minus
1. 3 minus 1 is equals to 2.
81 minus 1 that is equals to
80 so 89 sha
80 times one one long namanian and that
is equals to
80. 80 divided by 2
that is equals to 40. so ang sum d it
was a first
fourth term i 40
in other words 1 plus
3 plus 9 plus 27
this is equals to 40.
