Exercise 4 Page 25

What is the change between pairs of consecutive terms?

Pattern: previous term - 9
Next term: 65

By observing the change that occurs between each consecutive terms, we can describe the pattern of the sequence. Here, we see that the common difference from one term to the next is subtracting 9. 101- 9 →92- 9 →83- 9 →74 To find the next term in the sequence, we will extend this pattern once. 101- 9 →92- 9 →83- 9 →74- 9 → 65
