Analysis
How did you arrive with the correct answer? What rule did you consider?
Cite examples and identify the rule involved.
Let the students define the word sequence based on the given examples.
Activity:
A. Find the next three terms of each sequence:
a. 25, 17, 9, ...
b. 1, -4, 9, -16, ...
c. 0.5, 1.5, 4.5, ...
d. 4, 5, 9, 14, ...
B. Group activity:
Make your own sequence and ask the other groups to identify the next three
terms. Explain the rule of the sequence.
C. Solve the following:(Quiz Bee- Group)
a. Use the functional relation F(n) = 2n - 3, where n is a natural number, to
write an infinite sequence.
b.. Using consecutive positive integers n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, write the first terms
of the sequence defined by G(n) = n - .

Abstraction
Activity(Group):
Based on the given activities, make a generalization about the concepts presented.
Application
Problem Solving:
1. In an experiment, the car bounces back 6 meters and then moves forward again.
On each bounce, it moves back 2/3 of the distance of the previous distance.
a. Determine the distance of the bump car from the head wall after 4 bounces.
b. Solve for the total distance traveled by the car after 5 bounces.
2. Lewis is offered Php 20,000 as starting for a job, with a raise of Php 2,000 at the
end of each year of outstanding performance. If he maintains continuous outstanding
performance, what will his salary be at the end of 6 years?
