Create a Number Pattern
______________________________________________________________________________- Create two different number patterns, one in which the numbers
increase and the other in which the numbers decrease. - Record ten terms in each sequence.
- Explain the rule for each pattern.
Example:
1, 5, 9, 13, 17, 21, 25, 29, 33, 37 ......
50, 47, 44, 41, 38, 35, 32, 29, 26, 23 ......
- What would the 15th term in each pattern be? Explain your thinking.
(^)
The rule for my first pattern is
add 4. Each term in the
sequence increases by 4.
The rule for my second pattern is
subtract 3. Each term in the
sequence decreases by 3.
