Thank you for your attentiveness today. We got through a lot of content and it's exciting to finally get started with the academic stuff! Even though today's math lesson was pretty straightforward and easy, sequences can also be quite complex and be used to solve some real-life problems.
Below is a very famous sequence of numbers.
0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13 21, 34, 55, 89, 144...
Can you figure out the sequence?
What do you think this sequence was used to represent?
We'll talk about it tomorrow in math!
Please leave a comment today/tonight with your answers/guesses. Make sure you sign your name so I know who left the comment.
e.g. "Mr. Goh - I think the next number in the sequence is ___. The sequence was used to represent how the number of cars on Hwy. 44 increases as we get closer to 8 a.m."
See you all tomorrow!
I have been on here and I can't figure out the sequence... I'm confused! ~Madison W.
ReplyDelete233 is the answer I figred it out but it was verry changenging!!!!!!-lexi (alexis)
Deletemaddie THINK THINK THINK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you can do it!!! lexi
Deletenoah- the answer was 233
ReplyDeleteI figured it out! (with a little help) katelyn k.
ReplyDeletenext number is 233. you add to numbers like 1+1=2
DeleteThe next 2 numbers are 233, 377 and we think it represents the number of fleas that are on my dog daily! :) Josh Boyers
ReplyDeleteThe answer is 233 because the numbers equal themselves. Like 1+1=2+3=5+8=13 and so on. -Joshua Vissicchio
ReplyDeletethe answer is 233 because you just add the next two numbers until you come to the end. that was pretty hard, but i got it all by myself!!!! i just stared at the numbers for a long time because i was so confused. when i got the answer i so mad at myself because after i knew it, it seemed so easy. i always thought that i would always get the answer to sequences fast, because they were so easy. that one took quite a while.

It's the Fibonacci sequence. The first two numbers are 0 and 1 and the next number in the sequence is the sum of the two numbers before.
ReplyDeleteIt's used to count pairs. Thanks Wikipedia!

Finally figured it out 0+1=1 1+1=2 and so on. So the next number is 233
ReplyDeleteyou have to prove your not a robot to post a comment!!!!!! lexi
ReplyDelete:O creepy....
DeleteYou add 1 and 1 equls 2 and 2 and 3 equals 5 on and on in the sequence.
ReplyDeleteThe answer is 233

ReplyDelete233 is the answer

Mr. Goh - I think the next number in the sequence is 233. I think the sequence was used to represent how many baby bunnies are born in one bunny family in a year.

i think it is 233 because you add 1+1=2 and1+2=3 untill you get to 233.

ReplyDeleteZac- The next number in the sequence is 233. This could be used to add.
