    INVESTIGATION SUMS OF SEQUENCES (30 marks)


    You are advised to spend no more than 45 minutes on this part.

    Here is the method to construct a sequence for this investigation.

    Method Example

    Write down any two numbers for the first two terms. 3 and 7

    Add these two terms to make the third term. 3 + 7 = 10

    Add the second and third terms to make the fourth term. 7 + 10 = 17

    Add the third and fourth terms to make the fifth term. 10 + 17 = 27

    Continue in this way to construct the sequence.

    This example makes the sequence: 3, 7, 10, 17, 27, 44,

    1 Show that the sum of the first six terms in this sequence, divided by the fifth term, is 4.

    2 (a) The first two terms of another sequence are 4.52 and 16.9 .

    (i) Use the method to write down the next four terms in this sequence.
    Do not round any of your numbers.

    4.52, 16.9, , , , [2]

    (ii) Work out the sum of the first six terms in this sequence and divide it by the fifth term.

    [2]

    (b) (i) Choose two negative numbers to be the first two terms of a sequence.

    Use the method to work out the next four terms in this sequence.
    Write down the first six terms in your sequence.

    , , , , , [2]

    (ii) Work out the sum of the first six terms in your sequence and divide it by the fifth term.

    3 The first two terms of a new sequence are p and q.
    The table shows the working for the first five terms.

    Working Term

    p p

    q q

    p + q p+q

    q + p+q p + 2q

    p+q + p + 2q 2p + 3q

    (a) Complete the table.


    [2]

    (b) Find an expression for the sum of these first six terms.
    Simplify your answer.

    [1]

    (c) Find an equation to connect the fifth term and the sum of the first six terms.

    [2]

    4 (a) Find the next four terms in the sequence in question 3.

    7th term

    8th term

    9th term

    10th term [2]

    (b) Find an expression for the sum of the first ten terms in this sequence.
    Simplify your answer.

    14th term [2]

    (b) Find an expression for the sum of the first fourteen terms.
    Simplify your answer.

    [1]

    (c) This sum is a multiple of one of the terms in question 4(a).


    Find this multiple.

    [2]

    (d) Prove this connection.

    [2]

    6 In question 2 the connection between the sum of the six terms and the fifth term is

    sum of the first 6 terms = 4 times 5th term

    Complete the following statements.

    sum of the first 10 terms =

    sum of the first 14 terms =

    sum of the first 18 terms = [3]
