What This Module is About

This module was designed to help the learners to use the

concepts of patterns and sequences to develop their skills in critical
thinking and algebraic reasoning.
In this module, you will learn how to formulate the rule in finding
the next term in sequence.
The patterns are very helpful in finding solutions to the
problems. We will use the four basic operations:
addition,subtraction,multiplication and division in a sequence of
numbers.

Lesson Formulate the Rule in

1 Finding the Next Term in
a Sequence

What’s In

Look at the figures. They are made of cubes.

Figure A Figure B Figure C

Questions:
1. How many cubes are found in figure A?
2. How many cubes are found in figure B?
3. How many cubes are found in figure C?
4. Can you see a pattern? Describe this pattern?

What’s New

Read and answer the problem.

Seven days before his mother’s birthday, Clark planned to give
his gift. On the first day, he sent one gift. On the second day, he sent
three gifts. On the third day, he sent five gifts and so on. How many
gifts did Clark send his mother on the seventh day?

How can you solve the problem?

Consider the given problem, it can be presented by table form.
Day 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th 7th
Number
1 3 5 ? ? ? ?
of Gifts
Upon observing the number of gifts
1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13

+2 +2 +2 +2 +2 +2
As the sequence continues

Therefore, his mother will receive 13 gifts on the seventh day.

What is It

There are problems in Mathematics that can be solved by

observing sequences and patterns. A sequence is an enumeration of
numbers or objects that are in particular order. It appears accordingly
to a specific rule. These numbers are called terms. Patterns are
repetitive sequences and can be found in nature, shapes, events, sets
of numbers and almost everywhere you care to look

What’s More

Answer the following. First, give the rule then find the next term
in a sequence. NOTE: Clue is given.

1. 5, 10, 11, 22, ____, ____, ____

Rule: Multiply by 2 and add 1

2. 3, 14, 25, 36, ____, ____, ____
