Answer 1

88 + 42 = 130

Answer 2

88 is right, I had to dbl chk meself sothat there was no typos and I could gradeja lol

Answer 3

Answer 4

Am I right? :)

Answer 5

Ana, very good :)

Answer 6

^^

Answer 7

I'm missing the sequence...

Answer 8

teh key is in taking the differences down until they are the same ... takes about 3 or 4 cycles

Answer 9

I think my brain exploded after reteaching myself (or learning for the first time...don't remember) Lagrange Multipliers

Answer 10

The differences between one term to the other are:
6 9 14 22 36 57 88 __ __
3 5 8 14 21 31
And the differences between one of each of these terms to the others are:
2 3 6 7 10
And finally:
1 3 1 3

So to get the next number you'll add, you add 1 to 10, 11. Then 11 to 31, 42, then 42 to 88 = 130.

For the next, 3 + 11 = 14, 14 + 42 = 56, 130 +56 = 186.

Answer 11

i started with 1 3 1 3 ; and added 2 to the next step to get:

2, 2+1 = 3, 3+3=6, 6+1=7, 7+3=10 ; then i picked a random number to start the next line; 3 ....

yeps :)

Answer 12

You hear that? That was the sound of my last 2 brain cells dying away :)

Answer 13

theres also a fan method; where you go so far and then take the differences from the left side ... but i cant recall it to well

Answer 14

amistre...if you get a chance, can you check #/groups/mathematics/updates/4dff6b430b8bbe4f12e7791e to make sure I got it right?
