Math Problem Statement
Schreibt einen Term davon
Solution
The image shows a pattern of blue dots arranged in three stages, labeled as 1, 2, and 3. To write a term representing the pattern mathematically, we need to identify the rule behind the number and arrangement of dots at each stage.
- Stage 1 has 2 dots.
- Stage 2 has 4 dots.
- Stage 3 has 6 dots.
It looks like the number of dots is increasing by 2 in each step. We can assume that the number of dots in each stage follows a simple arithmetic sequence. Specifically, the number of dots seems to follow the formula:
Where represents the number of dots at stage . This formula suggests that at each stage , there are dots.
Would you like a detailed explanation of how I derived the formula or any additional clarifications?
Here are 5 related questions to further your understanding:
- What is the general form of an arithmetic sequence?
- How can you find the next stage of this pattern using the formula?
- How would you modify the term if the difference between stages increased differently?
- What happens if the pattern starts from a different initial number of dots?
- Can you represent this pattern graphically, and what would it look like?
Tip: When working with arithmetic sequences, always identify the common difference between terms to establish a clear formula.
