Answer:
8x + 8 = 6x + 20/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1. 48 sticks, 49 dots
2. 60 sticks, 61 dots
3. figure 13, 157 dots
Step-by-step explanation:
The pattern increases by 12 sticks each time. The number of dots is equal to the number of lines plus 1. An easy way to figure it out is to multiply the figure number by 12 to find the number of lines and then add one more for the number of dots. To solve 3, divide the number of sticks by 12 to find the figure number, and add one to the number of sticks to get the number of dots.
-10 and 2
-10 x 2 = -20
-10 + 2 = -8
