I. OBJECTIVES
a ( 1 )=12 =1, a ( 2 )=22=4 , a ( 3 )=32=9 , a ( 4 ) =4 2=16 , a ( 5 )=5 2=25. You can list the sequence as:
1,4,9,16,25, …
The notation a n is the same as the functional notation a ( n ) , but is used more
EXAMPLE 2.
Look at the sequence below and predict the general term.
3,6,9,12,15, …
SOLUTION:
In Example 2, multiples of 3, the terms can be identified as follows
First term: a 1=3 (1 )=3
Second term: a 2=3 ( 2 )=6
Third term: a 3=3 ( 3 )=9
Fourth term: a 4=3 ( 4 )=12
Fifth term: a 5=3 ( 5 )=15

General Term: a n=3 ( n )=3 n
The sequence 3,6,9,12,15 can be used to find the partial sum.
S5=3+ 6+9+12+15
S5=45 , the sum if the first five terms.
This concept of getting the sum of terms can be expressed in a simpler manner using
the summation notation, denoted by the Greek letter Σ sigma. This can be used to indicate
the
m
the sum of terms in a sequence. ∑ an=a1+ a2 +a3 + a4 +a 5+ …+am
n =1
Write the sum of the following summation notation:
