1.   Write a rule that describes how to create each term of the sequence below.
   
    A. Add the same number as the term number to the right side to create another 2 squares.
    B. Add 6 toothpicks to the right side to create another square.
    C. Add 3 toothpicks to the right side to create another 2 squares.
    D. Add 6 toothpicks to the right side to create another 2 squares.
    Hint

  2.   Find the number of squares in Term 6 for the sequence.
   
    A. 11 B. 28
    C. 34 D. 9
    Hint

  3.   Find a dot sequence that matches the rule d = 4 + (2n – 2), where n represents the term number and d represents the number of dots.
    A.
    B.
    C.
    D.
    Hint

  4.   The following explanation of a rule is for a toothpick sequence. Find the correct rule if n is used to represent the term number and t to represent the number of toothpicks.
   
    A. t = 2n + (n – 1) B. t = 2 + (n – 1)
    C. t = 1 + 2n D. t = 2n – 1
    Hint

  5.   Carolyn found a rule for a toothpick sequence to be t = 3n – 2, where n is used to represent the term number and t to represent the number of toothpicks. Find an equivalent rule.
    A. t = 7 + (3n – 2) B. t = 6 + (3n – 3)
    C. t = 7 + 3(n – 3) D. t = 6 + 3(n – 3)
    Hint
