Answer:

1. Add 3

2. Multiply 4

Explanation:

Given


(1)\ 1, 4, 7, 10, 13


(2)\ 2, 8, 32, 128, 512

Required

The rule


(1)\ 1, 4, 7, 10, 13

This is a linear function because successive terms have a common difference

The common difference between each term is:


d = 4 - 1 = 3


d = 7 - 4 = 3


d = 10 - 7 = 3


d = 13 - 10 = 3

The above shows that 3 is
added\ to\ each\ term to get the next term.

Hence, the rule is: Add 3


(2)\ 2, 8, 32, 128, 512

This is a geometric function because successive terms have a common ratio

The common ratio between each term is:


r = 8/2 = 4


r = 32/8 = 4


r = 128/32 = 4


r = 512/128 = 4

The above shows that 4
is\ multiplied\ to\ each\ term to get the next term.

Hence, the rule is: Multiply 4
