  1. 1. (b) 9Odd numbers go up by 2, so 7 + 2 = 9.
  2. 2. (c) 99 = 3 × 3, a square number.
  3. 3. (d) add 5Each term is 5 more than the last.
  4. 4. (a) 9Sum of first 3 odd numbers = 3 × 3 = 9.
  5. 5. An ordered list of numbers formed by following a rule.
  6. 6. 6 (it can be drawn as a triangle of dots: 1 + 2 + 3).
  7. 7. To find a rule, compare each term with the one before it. In 2, 5, 8, 11 each term is 3 more than the previous one, so the rule is 'add 3'. Using this rule we extend the pattern: 11 + 3 = 14, then 14 + 3 = 17, and so on. Knowing the rule lets us predict any later term without drawing the whole sequence.
