The document explains number patterns as sets of consecutive numbers following a specific sequence. It provides examples of number patterns and challenges the reader to identify the next number in the sequence, along with a method for finding the nth term of a pattern. Additionally, the document includes general formulas for several number patterns.

3. Number Pattern
It is a set or list of numbers that follow
a specific pattern or sequence.
The numbers in the number pattern are
consecutive numbers.

4. Number Pattern
Example:
0,3,6,9,12,____
What is the next number?
Answer: 15

5. Number Pattern
Example:
-2,-1,0,1,2,____
What is the next number?
Answer: 3

6. Number Pattern
Example:
1, -4, 9, -16, 25
What is the next number?
Answer: -36

7. Number Pattern
Finding the nth term of a number pattern:
Nth term – it is the term or expression that
can be used in finding any term of the
sequence.

8. Find the General Formula of the
Number Pattern:
1.) 5, 7, 9, 11, 13
2.) 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3
3.) 1, 4, 9, 16, 25
4.) 1, 16, 81, 256, 625
5.) 3, 7, 11, 15, 19
𝑎 𝑛 = 2 𝑛 + 3
𝑎 𝑛 =
𝑛 + 1
2
𝑎 𝑛 = 𝑛2
𝑎 𝑛 = 𝑛4
𝑎 𝑛 = 4𝑛 − 1
