Sagot :
Study the pattern. Give the rule for each pattern. Write the next three terms to continue the pattern. Write the answers in the blank.
1.) 1, 1, 1, 3, 5, 9, 17, 31, 57.
Rule: The sum of the latest 3 numbers will be the next number.
Solution:
1 + 1 + 1 = 3
1 + 1 + 3 = 5
1 + 3 + 5 = 9
3 + 5 + 9 = 17
5 + 9 + 17 = 31
9 + 17 + 31 = 57
Mineral Water = 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60
Packed Meals = 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30
1.) Write a rule for the bottles of mineral water in terms of the packed meals. If n is the number of bottles of mineral water, then the number of packed meals is half the number of mineral water. (165)
No. of Mineral Water:
6 + 12 + 18 + 24 + 30 + 36 + 42 + 48 + 54 + 60 = 330
No. of Packed Meals:
3 + 6 + 9 + 12 + 15 + 18 + 21 + 24 + 27 + 30 = 165
