Question

A pattern uses alternating addition and subtraction as its rules. The rules are "Add 7" and "Subtract 3." The pattern begins with 37. What is the 5th number in the pattern? (1 point) Responses 41 41 44 44 45 45 48

Answer 1

To find the 5th number in the pattern, we need to alternate between adding 7 and subtracting 3 starting from 37.

37 + 7 = 44 (1st number)
44 - 3 = 41 (2nd number)
41 + 7 = 48 (3rd number)
48 - 3 = 45 (4th number)
45 + 7 = 52 (5th number)

Therefore, the 5th number in the pattern is 52.

Answer 5

Based on the information given, the pattern alternates between "Add 7" and "Subtract 3" starting from 37. Therefore, if we follow the pattern, the next number after 37 would be 37 + 7 = 44. Since we are looking for the 5th number, the correct answer from the given responses would be 44.
