Somebody can help me with this problem please
Where is the question
I am trying to send a file but can not attach
#2 has 1 column, 2 columns, 3 columns. So the next pattern will have 4 columns with 4 circles in the 4th column, 3 circles in the 3rd column, etc.
You have already answered #3 correctly.
#2 the question is how many circles are in the sixth figure in the pattern?
For #2, you just take the previous pattern and add a new column that has one more circle. So the number of circles goes like this: 1, 1 + 2, 1 + 2 + 3, 1 + 2 + 3 + 4, .... continue the pattern and you will figure it out.
They also want you to draw the next 3 patterns and figure out the number of circles in the 6th pattern.
Yes!
So the sixth figure had 21 circles
Yes.
describe pattern is 1+2+3+4+5+6
Fourth figure is obtained by adding to the third figure an additional column to the right with 4 circles in that column. Fifth figure is obtained by adding to the fourth figure an additional column to the right with 5 circles in that column. etc.
You can also include in the pattern description that the nth figure has a total of n + (n-1) + (n-2) + .... 1 circles in them. The picture you have drawn illustrates that you have understood what pattern it forms better than words can describe it. So the previous description might be sufficient.
