Units
Unit 1: Representing Sequences
In this lesson, students will be introduced to sequences and the associated notation. They will develop an understanding of recursive sequences and represent sequences in a variety of ways.
In this lesson, we will be introduced to a famous pattern of numbers known as Pascal’s triangle. Patterns within Pascal’s triangle will be investigated, including those that assist in expanding powers of binomials, \((a+b)^n\). The Binomial Theorem will be used to expand binomials of the form \((a+b)^n\) and to find specific terms within a binomial expansion.
All of the pencil and paper practice exercises, answers, and solutions for this unit are reproduced here.
This is a collection of additional, and sometimes challenging, problems that extend the material covered in this unit, connect material from different lessons, and further explore real-world applications.
