Notes:
Linear v. Non-Linear: An equation can be identified as linear if the equation can be written as y = mx + b. If there is an exponent on a variable (x², x³, etc.) The equation is not linear. Linear equations look like a line if you graph them. Non-linear equations have curves in their graphs.
Advanced math notation: "∆" stands for "the change in." When talking about out Frankenstein tables we use ∆x and ∆y.
∆y represents the change in y from position to position in the pattern. ∆x is change in x from position to position (many times 1).

Find the nth term in a number pattern
ReplyDelete.Example 1:4,8,12,16,20 find the 100th term
.Put the change in the y over the change in the x 4/1
.Delta y =(change in)y="delta y"
.Lets try one more find the 67th term 4,9,14,19,24
