Question

find figure 0 for the tile pattern below. write a rule that will give the number of tiles in any figure, record the data for the first six tiles 0-5 in a table, and graph the data

Answer 1

for this case we can see that for

Figure 0 = 6 tiles

Figure 1 = 7 tiles

Figure 2 = 8 tiles

Figure 3= 9 tiles

Figure 4 = 10 tiles

Figure 5= 11 tiles

Then the table would be given by:

Figure number (x) 0 1 2 3 4 5 x

Number of tiles (y) 6 7 8 9 10 11 6+x

And the line should be like this:
