Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

(a)

Record the number of sticks and look for a pattern

1 → 6 sticks

2 → 10 sticks

3 → 14 sticks

There is a difference of + 4 between each pattern, thus add 4 to the previous pattern , that is

4 → 14 + 4 = 18

5 → 18 + 4 = 22

6 → 22 + 4 = 26

That is there are 26 sticks in pattern number 6

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

(b)

Multiplying the pattern number (n) by the difference 4 gives

4 × 1 = 4 ← require to + 2 for 6

4 × 2 = 8 ← require to + 2 for 10

4 × 3 = 12 ← require to + 2 for 14

Thus pattern number n would have

sticks = 4n + 2
