geometric sequence does
not exist. Answer Key
1. Find the 12 th term of the
harmonic sequence 1/ 9,
1/12, 1/ 15,…
Solution: Note that the
reciprocals form an
arithmetic
sequence so we may first
find the 12 th term of an
arithmetic
 sequence 9, 12, 15,… and
then get its reciprocal. Using
the
formula
A n = A 1 + (n- 1)d
A 12 = 9 + (12- 1)3
A 12 = 9 + (11)3 A 12 = 9
+33 A 12 = 42
The reciprocal is 1/42.
2. Given the arithmetic
sequence -20, -26, -32, -
38, .., find the first
8 terms of the
corresponding harmonic
sequence.
Solution: Completing the 8
terms of the given sequence,
we
have -20, -26, -32, -38, -44, -
50, -56, and 62. Therefore,
the first
8 terms of the harmonic
sequence are -1/20,-1/26, -
1/32, -
1/38, -1/44, -1/50, -1/56,
and 1/62.

Possible response:
1. Look for pattern or use the
