Constant Patterns

What expression would represent the following pattern:

7, 4, 1, -2, -5,...

Assume that 7 is our 0th term

• -3x + 10

• -3x

• -3x + 7

• -3x - 10

In the following pattern: 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, ... Select ALL the statements that are true

• An equation to represent the pattern would be: y = 6

• The pattern is NOT changing. It is staying constant

• The pattern is changing by adding 1

• The pattern would be a horizontal line if graphed

• An equation to represent the pattern would be: y = 6x

In the pattern: 4, 7, 10, 13, 16,... what would the 50th term be?

Assume that 4 is the 0th term

• 150

• 151

• 154

• 50

What expression would represent the following pattern:

7, 4, 1, -2, -5,...

Assume that 7 is our 1st term

• -3x + 10

• -3x

• -3x + 7

• -3x - 10

The pattern 1 ; 6 ; 11 ; 16 has a:

• constant difference

• constant ratio

• neither

The pattern 3 ; 6 ; 12 ; 24 has a:

• constant difference

• constant ratio

What is the constant difference in the following pattern?

2 ; 5 ; 8 ; 11

• x3

• -3

• +3

Find the missing number in the pattern

1 ; 3 ; 9 ; .......... ; 81

Find the missing number in the pattern

3,77 ; 3,66 ; 3,55 ; 3,44 ; ...........
