I. Identify what type of sequence is the one below and supply the sequence with the
next two terms:

1. 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16 Arithmetic Sequence (Common difference: 3)

2. 80, 40, 20, 10, 5 Geometric Sequence (Common ratio: ½ or 0.5)
3. 1, 1, 2,3, 5, 8, 13, 21 Fibonacci Sequence
4. 56, 46, 36, 26, 16, 6 Arithmetic Sequence (Common difference: -10)
5. 2, 20, 200, 2 000, 20 000, 200 000 Geometric Sequence (Common ratio: 10)

II. Compute for the following Fibonacci numbers and preform the given operation:

1. What is Fib (13)?

𝜑 𝑛 − (1 − 𝜑)𝑛
𝑥𝑛 =
√5
1.61813 − (1 − 1.618)13
𝑥13 =
√5
𝑥13 = 233

2. What is Fib (20)?

𝜑 𝑛 − (1 − 𝜑)𝑛
𝑥𝑛 =
√5

1.61820 − (1 − 1.618)20
𝑥20 =
√5

𝑥20 = 6762

3. What is Fib (8) + Fib (9)?

𝜑𝑛 −(1−𝜑)𝑛 𝜑𝑛 −(1−𝜑)𝑛
𝑥𝑛 = 𝑥𝑛 =
√5 √5
1.6188 −(1−1.618)8 1.6189 −(1−1.618)9
𝑥8 = 𝑥9 =
√5 √5

𝑥8 = 21 𝑥9 = 34

𝐹𝑖𝑏 (8) + 𝐹𝑖𝑏 (9) = ?

= 21 + 34

𝐹𝑖𝑏 (8) + 𝐹𝑖𝑏 (9) = 55

4. What is Fib (1) * Fib (7) + Fib (12) – Fib (6)?
𝜑𝑛 −(1−𝜑)𝑛 𝜑𝑛 −(1−𝜑)𝑛
𝑥𝑛 = 𝑥𝑛 =
√5 √5
1.6181 −(1−1.618)1 1.6187 −(1−1.618)7
𝑥1 = 𝑥7 =
√5 √5

𝑥1 = 1 𝑥7 = 13

𝜑𝑛 −(1−𝜑)𝑛 𝜑𝑛 −(1−𝜑)𝑛
𝑥𝑛 = 𝑥𝑛 =
√5 √5
1.61812 −(1−1.618)12 1.6186−(1−1.618)6
𝑥12 = 𝑥6 =
√5 √5

𝑥12 = 144 𝑥6 = 8

𝐹𝑖𝑏 (1) ∗ 𝐹𝑖𝑏 (7) + 𝐹𝑖𝑏 (12) − 𝐹𝑖𝑏 (6) = ?

= 1 ∗ 13 + 144 − 8
𝐹𝑖𝑏 (1) ∗ 𝐹𝑖𝑏 (7) + 𝐹𝑖𝑏 (12) − 𝐹𝑖𝑏 (6) = 149

5. What is the sum of Fib (1) up to Fib (10)?

𝑛

𝐹𝑖𝑏𝟏 + 𝐹𝑖𝑏𝟐 + ⋯ + 𝐹𝑖𝑏𝒏 = ∑ 𝐹𝑖𝑏𝑥

𝑥=1

𝐹𝑖𝑏𝟏 + 𝐹𝑖𝑏𝟐 + ⋯ + 𝐹𝑖𝑏𝒏 = ∑ 𝐹𝑖𝑏1 + 𝐹𝑖𝑏2 + ⋯ + 𝐹𝑖𝑏10

10
1.618𝑥 − (1 − 1.618)𝑥
𝐹𝑖𝑏𝟏 + 𝐹𝑖𝑏𝟐 + ⋯ + 𝐹𝑖𝑏10 = ∑
𝑥=1
√5
1.6181 − (1 − 1.618)1 1.6182 − (1 − 1.618)2 1.61810 − (1 − 1.618)10
𝐹𝑖𝑏1 + 𝐹𝑖𝑏2 + ⋯ + 𝐹𝑖𝑏10 = ∑ + +⋯+
√5 √5 √5
𝐹𝑖𝑏𝟏 + 𝐹𝑖𝑏𝟐 + ⋯ + 𝐹𝑖𝑏10 = 142.97
𝐹𝑖𝑏𝟏 + 𝐹𝑖𝑏𝟐 + ⋯ + 𝐹𝑖𝑏10 = 143
