Keep subtracting 6
4*2-2=6 6*2-2=10
(n - 10) + 6
The rule of this pattern is -2 + 6 +4 so the next number would be 16.
3 is the answer
The pattern will be +2, +3, +4, +4
4*2-2=6 6*2-2=10
(n - 10) + 6
Subtract 2 from the previous number. 10-2 = 8 8-2 = 6 6-2 = 4 4-2 = 2
The rule of this pattern is -2 + 6 +4 so the next number would be 16.
3 is the answer
The pattern will be +2, +3, +4, +4
+2, +3, +2
t(n) = 3(n-1) + 1, for n = 1, 2, 3, etc
add 6, subtract 2
i0 = 4; in = in-1 - 3
The rule is multiply the previous term by -1 to find the next term.
Homework question: The first numbetr is 4. A rule is multiply by 2 and then subtract 3. What are the first 6 numbers in the pattern
