List the first twenty counting numbers in the indicated base below. nine(Only digits 0 through 8 are used in base nine)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and then there are two more numbers in this pattern; can you find them?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

next 8 numbers* not digits, sorry; but the numbers listed so far are correct. can you finish it off?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

20,21,22?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well, just \(20, 21\) would make twenty, but in case zero is not considered a counting number, then, yes, it should be: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 and then the three you gave
