Lesson 2: Representing Pattern Relationships with Tables and Graphs — Practice Questions

  1. 1. A pattern is generated by the rule "add 4" starting from 5. If you plot the ordered pairs from this pattern on a coordinate grid, what kind of graph will you get?

    • A. A straight line
    • B. A circle
    • C. A curve that decreases
    • D. A curve that increases rapidly
  2. 2. A pattern starts with the number 1 and follows the rule "multiply by 4". When the ordered pairs representing this pattern are plotted, what shape do the points form?

    • A. A straight line
    • B. A curve
    • C. A horizontal line
    • D. A vertical line
  3. 3. A pattern follows the rule "add 5" starting at 10. The first ordered pair is $(1, 15)$. What is the y-coordinate when the x-coordinate is 3?

  4. 4. A pattern follows the rule "multiply by 2" starting at 5. The first ordered pair is $(1, 10)$. What is the y-coordinate when the x-coordinate is 3?

  5. 5. A pattern is generated by the rule "add 6" starting at 1. The second ordered pair is $(2, 13)$. What is the y-coordinate of the third ordered pair, $(3, \_\_\_)$?

  6. 6. When graphing a numerical pattern, the first number in the ordered pair, the x-coordinate, typically represents which of the following?

    • A. The value of the term
    • B. The term number
    • C. The starting value of the pattern
    • D. The rule used to generate the pattern
  7. 7. The points $(1, 7)$, $(2, 11)$, and $(3, \_\_\_)$ are part of a pattern that forms a straight line. What is the missing y-coordinate?

  8. 8. A pattern starts with 5 and follows the rule "add 5". The ordered pair for the second term is $(2, \text{\_\_\_})$.

  9. 9. A pattern is generated by the rule $y = 7x$. For the third term, where $x=3$, the value of $y$ is $\text{\_\_\_}.$

  10. 10. A pattern starts at 2 and follows the rule "add 2". The ordered pair for the fourth term is $(4, \text{\_\_\_})$.
