Question

Look at the number pattern given below. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 .................................................................................. ............................................................................................................a) Write the next two more lines of this pattern ? b) How many numbers are there in the 9th line? c) What is the last number in the 9th line ?d) What is the the first term in the 11th line ?​

Answer 1

The questions pertain to a numerical sequence which increments by 1 for each number. Each line contains four numbers. The 9th line ends with 36 and the 11th line starts with 41.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pattern demonstrated follows a simple numerical sequence that increases by 1 with each new number. It seems to represent numbers in their natural order, from 1 onwards. Let's evaluate each part of your question:

1. To write the next two lines of this pattern, we need to know how many numbers are in a line. If we assume the pattern given (from 1 to 16) represents the first four line of the pattern, then each line contains 4 numbers. So, the next two lines would be: Line 5 -> 17, 18, 19, 20; Line 6 -> 21, 22, 23, 24.
2. The number count in the 9th line is consistent, as each line contains 4 numbers.
3. The last number in the 9th line can be found using the logic that each line starts with a number that is one more than the last number of the previous line. By this logic, line 9 starts with 33 (last number of 8th line is 32) and ends with 36 (fourth number in the line).
4. The first term in the 11th line would be 41, calculated in the same way: the last number of 10th line (40) + 1.
