There will be 36 squares in the 8th step of the pattern
<h3>How to determine the number of squares?</h3>
The pattern and the squares are represented as:
<u>Pattern Squares</u>
1 1
2 3
3 6
4 10
This can be rewritten as:
<u>Pattern Squares</u>
1 1
2 1 + 2
3 1 + 2 +3
4 1 + 2 + 3 +4
So, the number of squares on the 8th pattern is:
8th pattern = 1 + 2 + 3 +4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8
Evaluate
8th pattern = 36
Hence, there will be 36 squares in the 8th step

Answer:
r≈1.02
Step-by-step explanation:
The appropriate descriptors of geometric sequences are ...
... B) Geometric sequences have a common ratio between terms.
... D) Geometric sequences are restricted to the domain of natural numbers.
_____
The sequences may increase, decrease, or alternate between increasing and decreasing.
If the first term is zero, then all terms are zero—not a very interesting sequence. Since division by zero is undefined, the common ration of such a sequence would be undefined.
There are some sequences that have a common difference between particular pairs of terms. However, a sequence that has the same difference between all adjacent pairs of terms is called an <em>arithmetic sequence</em>, not a geometric sequence.
Any sequence has terms numbered by the counting numbers: term 1, term 2, term 3, and so on. Hence the domain is those natural numbers. The relation describing a geometric sequence is an exponential relation. It can be evaluated for values of the independent variable that are not natural numbers, but now we're talking exponential function, not geometric sequence.
