Example
Find the sum of the first 50 terms of the following sequence: 4, 9, 14, 19, 24, ...
Sum Formula: First, find the 50th term. Then, find the sum of the
first 50 terms.
a 50 = 4+(50-1)5

Example
Find the sum of the first 11 terms of the following sequence: -256, 128, -64, 32, -16, ...
Sum Formula: First, find the 11 th term. Then, find the sum of the
first 11 terms.
a 10 = -256 (-1/2) 11-1 11
s 11 = -256 ( 1-(-1/2)
)
-256, 128, -64, 32, -16, ... a 10 = -256 (-1/2) 10 1-(-1/2)
-1/2 -1/2 -1/2 -1/2 a 10 = -256 (1/1024) s 11 = -256 ( 1-(-1/2048) )

a 1 = -256 r = -0.5 a 10 = -1/4 s 11 = 170.75
Real Example
You’re deep into gaming — maybe it’s Call of Duty Mobile, Genshin Impact, or PUBG — and your phone’s battery
starts draining fast. Let’s say your game drains 20% of whatever battery is left every hour. That’s not just
subtraction — it’s exponential decay.
How the Sequence a_n = 100 \cdot (0.8)^{n-1}
Geometric Sequence
Works in This Case:
Because each hour, the Where:
• You start at 100%
battery keeps 80% of • a_n = battery percentage
battery. after n hours
what it had — meaning
• Each hour, your • 100 = starting battery
it’s multiplied by the percentage
battery keeps only 80%
same number each time. • 0.8 = battery multiplier
of what was left. (since it drops 20%)
Graphing
You can graph the battery % over hours using a line graph with sharp drops —
make it look dramatic to match the “phone dying while gaming” vibe.
Also, use icons:
• Full green battery for 100%
• Yellow for 64%
• Red blinking one for 20%
