Answer: 330 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance provided for the question is:
Wrexham
18 Ruthin
21 12 Cornwen
15 33 23 Oswestry
What this means is that Ruthin and Oswestry are 33 miles apart.
Each day, Jane travels back and forth for a total of:
= 33 * 2
= 66 miles
In 5 days she would have travelled:
= 5 * 66
= 330 miles
The next term would be -27
Lets pretend that all the negative signs went away, that way you have the data:
2, 5, 9, 14, 20
^^^In my opinion it just makes it easier because I don't like negative numbers. Keep in mind that the negatives are still there but I just made them "Invisible"
The pic below is how I found the pattern. If you can't tell by the picture from 2 to 5 it increases by 3. From 5 to 9 it increases by 4. From 9 to 14 it increases by 5. From 14 to 20 it increases by 6.
This means the pattern is to increase the number 1 more then the amount the previous number was increased (keep in mind this is the pattern for the positive version and therefore the original pattern would be decreasing (since the bigger a number that is negative is, the farther away it gets from zero, therefor getting smaller.) For the original version the rule would be: it would decrease the number 1 more then the amount the previous number was decreased) <<<Hope that makes sense
That means that 20 will be increased by 7 ( 6+ 1 = 7). Which equals 27. Make the negative sign visible again and your answer is -27.
Let me know if this made sense and if it was helpful!
