ok so my son has this math problem on his homework and i cant even understand it....here it is

jason made a pattern with numbers

19, 22, 28, 31, 37, 40

if he extends the pattern, which of the following numbers will he write?

A. 43
B. 50
C. 64
D. 75

i thought the answer should be 46 but thats not an option. what do you guys think?

[bluehawk2000]

43 bud

[bluehawk2000]

19,22=3
22,28=6
28,31=3
31,37=6
37,40=3
40,46
I was wrong should be 46 lol.

Write down that the teacher is an idiot and needs to check her own answers!!

[jiveass]

ok, tell me how you came to that conclusion cause it dont make sense..the pattern goes 3 then 6 then 3 then 6 ect...so if the pattern is 19, 22, 28, 31, 37, 40, then the next number should be 46

ninja edit: you see what im sayin now ....

At the ninja edit, and I jumped the gun on the answer cause I only went to 31 and stopped to verify the sequence lol. But I would def write a note to the teacher telling them they are an idiot lol, it's most likely a typo so she/he will find it when going over the math question tomorrow.

That's what I'm thinking...

c. 64

The sums of the numbers are 10...4...10...4....etc.

Its probably an error but 64 can be correct.

hold on......I'll go get Zach and let him answer it. He speaks fluent "dumbass teacher" since he has a couple of them.

So does that mean your kid is going to school to be a fluent dumbass?

here's now retarded his teacher is.....she keeps writing on his report card that he doesn't follow instructions well enough. The same report card that has all A's and one B on it????? Seems like he's following them to me??

my sons teacher says he has a poor attitude and is never prepared....i really dont have any comeback for that, since its pretty much true...

She is def a character isn't she, I mean maybe she is just mad he doesn't participate in class but he kicks her homework and tests asses and it makes her mad lol. But that still doesn't make sense to me why would a teacher write that on a report card like that.

TIME FOR THE HOTSAUCE!!!!!!!

[chiller2484]

64 is the right answer b/c the question doesn't say what's the next number is. it asks "if he extends the pattern, which of the following numbers will he write?"

the pattern is, like bluehawk said, 3,6,3,6,3,6,etc. so the continuation will be

19, 22, 28, 31, 37, 40, 46, 49, 55, 58, 64

if that don't work stick him in a cold shower.

how old is your son? She's basically describing any male under the age of 25.

[BKHgto04]

The answer is c.64.
The question asks if you extend the pattern which number WILL you write. 19,22,28,31,37,40,46,49,55,58,64
