Example Question #181 : Data Analysis And Probability

Based on the following arithmetic sequence, what is the value of ?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The question asks that you first determine the pattern, then use said pattern to find A and B, which can then be substituted into the equation . The pattern is to add 5 to the previous number to achieve the next number, which results in

and

Putting A and B into the equation gives:

 

The other answers are wrong for the following reasons:

286 is , not

48 is

63 is

624 is a result of having , a pattern addition mistake

Example Question #591 : Ssat Middle Level Quantitative (Math)

What is the value of  in the sequence below?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To answer this question, the pattern must first be found. There is no common interval between the numbers, however it can be seen that the next number is the sum of the number plus the number before. A good way to address a tricky pattern is to write the difference of the two numbers above the number, as seen below where the bold numbers are the orginal numbers and the nonbolded numbers are the differences.

    0     1      1     2     3

1     1     2     3      5     8

Using this pattern the value of A will be

Example Question #183 : Data Analysis And Probability

A tile layer plans to lay tile in a bathroom in the pattern shown below. What will the  tile be?

Red,  Blue,  Purple,  Green,  Yellow,  Red,  Blue,  Purple,  Green…

Possible Answers:

Red

Blue

Yellow

Purple

Green

Correct answer:

Blue

Explanation:

The first stop to determining what the  tile will be is to determine how many repeats of the pattern will occur before hand. There are  colors in the pattern, so divide  by . This results in  with a remainder of . This means that there will be  repeats of the pattern and at the  tile, it will be at the second spot in the pattern, which is Blue. So, the  tile is Blue.
