Answer:
- diagram is below
- 6, 11, 16, 21
- s[n] = s[n-1] +5
- 26, 31, 36
Step-by-step explanation:
a) See below for the next diagram in sequence.
__
b) The numbers of straws in each diagram are ...
6, 11, 16, 21, ...
__
c) Each term is 5 more than the previous one, so the recursive rule for the number of straws is ...
s[1] = 6
s[n] = s[n-1] +5
__
d) The next three terms of the sequence are ...
..., 26, 31, 36, ...
