SEQUENCE AND SERIES (ARITHMETIC PROGRESSION A.P)
ARITHMETIC PROGRESSION (AP): is the paternally movement of numbers upwardly or downwardly. i.e. positive or negative movement to form a sequence. E.g. 2,5,8,11… 20,16,12,8…
EXAMPLE:
Given 5 x , find the first three terms of the sequence.
SOLUTION
Let n = 1, 2, and 3
5 x . When n =1
5 x = 5 x 1 = 5 (any value raise to power zero = 1)
When n = 2
5 x = 5 x
=
3
When n = 3
5 x = 5 x
=

SOLUTION
= ? , a = 2 , n = 20 and d = second term – first term
= 5 – 2 = 3
= 2 + (20 – 1) 3

= a +7d = 25……… (i)
= a + 2d =15….. (ii)
Subtract (ii) from (i) 5d =10
d = 10 = 2
Substitute 2 for d in (i) a + 7(2) = 25
a = 25 – 14 = 11.
To find the 60th term, where a = 11, d = 2 and n = 60.
= 11 + (60-1) 2 = 11+ 59 x 2
= 11 + 118 = 129.

Arithmetic series is the successive addition of subtraction of a given sequence. i.e. 2+5+8+11+…..
FORMULAE FOR A.P. SERIES.

=
{2(10) + (20 – 1) 3}
= 10 (20 + 19 x 3) = 10 (77)
= 770
EXAMPLE

{a +L}, a = 0 , L =120, n = ?,
= 50.
50 = { 0 + 120}
50 x 2 = 120n
n = 100
.
To find the difference : =
{2a + (n-1)d}
50 = {2(0) + (
50 = {0+ –
}
50 = –
-5d = 50 x 72 (divide through by 5)
-d = 10 x72 = -720.
The difference of the A.P. is -720

LINEAR INEQUALITY (IN ONE VARIABLE)
INEQUALITIES: Are symbols or signs used for combining elements in arithmetic operations instead of equality sign. i.e. <,>,.
< = less than
> = greater than
= less than or equal to
= greater than or equal to.
CHARACTERISTICS OF INEQUALITIES
- They are reversed when the order of operation is reversed. i.e. x + y < 7, then 7 > x + y.
- They are affected by negative signs or numbers. They change to the opposite inequalities when combined with negative sign. i.e. –(a+b
c) is –a-b
-c.
- Inequalities are represented by number line and Cartesian graph. (a) NUMBER LINE is a line with an arrow indicating the direction of the numbers that satisfy the given inequality. i.e. arrow with empty circle is illustrated by < and >. While arrow with shaded circle are illustrated with
and
. (b) CARTESIAN GRAPH is a form of representation where shaded area is used to distinguish between the required inequality and the opposite end at the equality region.
- Inequalities can be combined as complete or incomplete solution. i.e. a<x<b (complete solution) and x < a, x > b (incomplete solution).
- Two opposite inequalities are used when a quadratic expression is given. i.e. (x-3)(x-2) > o
x-3 > 0 and x-2 < 0. They are used by combining the lowest factor with the given inequality and the highest factor with the opposite sign.
- Inequalities with variables in the denominator are evaluated by cross multiplication with the combining inequalities having different values according to the nature of the variables. i.e.-
< p
x > py.
RANGE OF INEQUALITIES
Range of inequalities is the value between which the solution of the inequalities lies or cannot lie. i.e. -3 < x <2 means values from -3 to 2.
EXAMPLE
Solve the inequality 5x + 7 6(x +3)
SOLUTION
5x + 7 6(x+3) open the bracket with +6
5x + 7 6x + 18
5x-6x

-x 11

EXAMPLE
Solve the inequality -9x -10 < 0
SOLUTION
-10x + x -10 < 0 (by factor method)
−10)(x+1)< 0
x-10 < 0 or x+1 > 0
< 10 or x > -1 (by combination)
< x < 10. The required range.
Find the solution set of -x-6 > 0, using number line.
SOLUTION
-x-6 > 0, (by factor method)
(x2)(x – 3)>0
x+2 >0 or x-3<0
X > -2 or x < 3, by combination
-3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3

INEQUALITIES IN TWO VARIABLES.
This symbolic sign involves two unknown (variables x and y) and the Cartesian graph is required for the solution to this inequalities.
CARTESIAN GRAPH: is the use of shaded region to distinguish between the required inequality and the opposite end at the equality region (boundary).
The boundary line is dotted or broken lines (<,>) or the full thick line (
EXAMPLE

SOLUTION
Take intercept of x
y = 0, x + 0 5

Take y-intercept
