What’s new! Suppose you participate in a bikeathon for charity. That charity starts with Php 50.00 in donations. Each participant must raise Php 200.00 in pledges. What is the minumum amount of money to be increased if there are 75 participants?
What’s the plan! Number of Participants (n) Total Amount Raised 1 5 2 2 50 3 450 … … 75 14,850 a n = a 1 + ( n-1) d a 75 = 50 + (75-1) 200 = 50 + (74) 200 = 50 + 14,800 = 14, 850 To solve this problem, we'll calculate the total amount of money raised by the 75 participants, plus the initial donation. This forms an arithmetic sequence: Initial donation: Php 50.00 Each participant raises: Php 200.00 Number of participants: 75 a 1 = 50 n= 75 d= 200 Therefore, the minimum amount of money raised with 75 participants is Php 14, 850.00.

Example Problem: Bacterial Growth In a scientific observation, a researcher notes a bacterial population growth pattern. Starting with 100 bacteria, the population increases by 50 every hour. This scenario serves as an effective illustration of an arithmetic sequence in biological research.
A scientist is observing the growth of bacteria in a petri dish. The initial population is 100 bacteria, and it increases by 50 bacteria every hour. How many bacteria will there be after 8 hours?
G: Given Initial population of bacteria: a 1 = 100 Increase in population per hour: d = 50 Number of hours: n = 8 A: Asked How many bacteria will there be after 8 hours? : a 8 = ? S: Solution a n = a 1 + ( n-1) d a 8 = 100 + ( 8-1) 50 = 100 + (7) 50 = 100 + 350 = 450 After 8 hours, there will be 450 bacteria in the petri dish.

Example Problem 1: Salary Increase
A recent graduate starts a new job with starting salary of Php20,000.00. Each year, they receive a raise of Php 2,000.00. How much will their salary be in the 5 th year?
G: Given Starting salary: a 1 = 20,000 Increase in salary per year: d = 2,000 Number of years: n = 5 A: Asked How much will their salary be in the 5th year? : a 5 = ? S: Solution a n = a 1 + ( n-1) d a 5 = 20,000 + ( 5-1) 50 = 20,000+(4) 2,000 = 20,000 + 8,000 = 28, 000 The salary in the 5 th year is Php 28,000.00

A plant grows 4 cm each week. If it starts at 10 cm, how tall will it be after 8 weeks? G: Given A: Asked S: Solution
G: Given Initial height of the plant: a 1 = 10 cm Plant grows 4 cm each week: d = 4 cm Number of weeks: n = 8 A: Asked How many bacteria will there be after 8 hours? : a 8 = ? S: Solution a n = a 1 + ( n-1) d a 8 = 10 + ( 8-1) 4 = 10 + (7) 4 = 10 + 28 = 38 cm The plant will be 38 cm tall after 8 weeks. 2 pts. 1 pt. 3 pts.
