Number Patterns17 past paper questions
- Continue a number patternFind how a number pattern grows and write the next terms, for example 3, 7, 11, 15 adds 4 each time, so the next term is 19.20 past paper questions · 3 videos
- Find a linear general termWrite a formula for any term of a pattern that adds the same amount each time, for example 5, 8, 11, … gives Tn = 3n + 2.36 past paper questions · 3 videos
- Split a combined sequenceSeparate a sequence that mixes two patterns into its two parts, for example 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8 splits into 1, 3, 5 and 2, 4, 8.10 past paper questions · 4 videos
- Find a quadratic general termWrite the formula Tn = an² + bn + c for a pattern whose second differences are equal, for example 2, 5, 10, 17 gives Tn = n² + 1.19 past paper questions · 3 videos
- Use a quadratic general termUse a quadratic pattern formula to find a term or its position, for example if Tn = n² + 1, then T10 = 101.14 past paper questions · 3 videos
- Use a pattern's first differencesTreat the gaps between terms of a quadratic pattern as their own pattern, for example find which two terms differ by 25.8 past paper questions · 3 videos
