Sequences 1 Math 1: Intro to Arithmetic Sequences Name:_____________________________ Pd:_____ Congratulations, you have just won The Fillmore High School lottery! You are given the option of receiving your payments in one of two ways for the next 16 days: Would you rather Receive $20 a day for 16 days Or For the next 16 days, double 1 penny on Day 1 for a total of 2 pennies and receive 2 more pennies on Day 2, 4 more pennies on Day 3, 8 more on Day 4, etc.? 1.) Which payment would you choose? Why? 2.) How much money would each one give you after 5 days? $20 a day (start with 0) Pennies a day (start with 1) Day $ added Total $ Day $ added Total $ 1 20 20 1 .01 .02 2 20 40 2 .02 .04 3 20 60 3 .04 .08 4 20 80 4 .08 .16 5 5 3.) How much money after 10 days? 15 days? 4.) If the contest went for 16 days, which option would you choose? How much money would you make? Check the other option at 16 days. Did you make a good choice? Why? 5.) Plot your point (Days, $ Total) on the graph. DAYS 6) Look at the $20 a day, what is the amount changing by each day? (i.e., what is the slope?) 7) Look at the pennies a day, what happens to the amount each day? 8) Try to create an equation for the $20 a day. (hint: it is a line) 9) Try to create an equation for the pennies a day. (hint: it doubles each time, 2 * 2 * 2 * …* 2) 10) What would the difference in the total dollars between the two be after 20 days? Bonus: Each $20 dollar bill weighs .002 lbs. What would the weight be of your $20 dollar bills be after 15 days of receiving them? Each penny weighs .006 lbs. What would the weight be of your pennies after 15 days of receiving them?

Describe the pattern that you see in the sequence of figures above. 2. Assuming the sequence continues in the same way, how many dots are there at 3 minutes? 3. How many dots are there at 100 minutes? 4. How many dots are there at t minutes? Solve the problems by your preferred method. Your solution should indicate how many dots will be in the pattern at 3 minutes, 100 minutes, and t minutes. Be sure to show how your solution relates to the picture and how you arrived at your solution.

Then write a sentence explaining how you figured out the values to put in each cell. Explain how to figure out what will be in cell #8. 13. You run a business making birdhouses. You spend $600 to start your business, and it costs you $5.00 to make each birdhouse. # of birdhouses 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Total cost to build Explanation: 14.

For Window: [ -‐10, 10] by [ -‐10,10] Window: [-‐10, 25] by [ -‐10, 5] linear functions, we want a x-‐ scale: 1 y-‐scale: 1 x-‐scale: 5 y-‐scale: 5 window that shows important information related to the story. Often, this means including both the x-‐ and y-‐ intercepts.
