Real-Life Math! Arithm and Geom Sequence Plus Series+Compound Interest Bundle
By Daniel
Students are alive and paying attention when any discussion on money is involved.
These tasks tie together many units into one - Arithmetic Sequences and Series, Geometric Sequences and Series as well as Compound Interest and Financial Math.
In these tasks, (with complete answer keys), students get to practice their skills on all Sequences and Series. They then discover that we can use the same formula that is used to calculate the sum of a geometric series for the future value of an annuity. It is here that the real-life application of this section of mathematics comes to life.
This skill is a life skill that shows the real-life application of the topic of sequences and series in the financial world.
Arithmetic Sequences, Arithmetic Series, Geometric Sequences, Geometric Series, Compound Interest, Future Value, Present Value, Annuities, Mortgage Repayments, Investments.
This task covers all the important topics in arithmetic sequences and series. The task contains all needed formulas.
Recurring formula, Explicit formula, first term a, constant difference d, Term n in the sequence, the sum of n terms of an arithmetic sequence.
This task covers the topic of Geometric Sequences and Series and makes the very important real-life link to Financial mathematics, compound interest, investments, present value, future value, annuities, mortgage payments, the value of single payments (investments) over time, the value of recurring payments (investments) over time.
Arithmetic Sequences, Sum of Arithmetic Series, Geometric Sequences, Sum of Geometric Series, Sigma-notation, Investments, Compound Interest, Annuities, Future Value, Present Value, Recurring Formula, Explicit Formula, constant difference, constant ratio, first term, n-th term, sum of n terms.
