1. What are the next three terms in the sequence? -3, 6, 15, 24
a) 35, 46, 57
b) 34, 44, 54
c) 33, 44, 56
d) 33, 42, 51
Nope!
What is the difference between each of the numbers?
Oh, and my answer for the first one was C
Anyways umm... it's d because its adding 9 to each number. Right?
Yes, D.
To find the next three terms in the sequence, we need to determine the pattern or rule that generates the sequence.
Looking at the given sequence, we can observe that each term is obtained by adding 9 to the previous term.
The pattern can be shown as:
Term 1: -3
Term 2: -3 + 9 = 6
Term 3: 6 + 9 = 15
Term 4: 15 + 9 = 24
Term 5: 24 + 9 = 33
So, the next term in the sequence is 33. To find the following terms, we continue adding 9 to the previous term.
Term 6: 33 + 9 = 42
Term 7: 42 + 9 = 51
Therefore, the correct answer is option d) 33, 42, 51.
