What is the change between pairs of consecutive terms?
22,15, and 8
By observing the change that occurs between each consecutive term, we can describe the pattern of the sequence. Here, we see that the change from one term to the next is subtracting 7.
50 -7 → 43 -7 → 36 -7 → 29
To find the next three terms in the sequence, we will extend this pattern three times.
50 -7 → 43 -7 → 36 -7 → 29 -7 → 22 -7 → 15 -7 → 8
