Question 577940: Use inductive reasoning to find the next to numbers in the sequence : 9, -5, -19,-33

You are subtracting 14 from each term (since 9 - 14 = -5, -5 - 14 = -19, etc)

So the next number is -33 - 14 = -47

and the number after that is -47 - 14 = -61

and the next one after that is -61 - 14 = -75

etc...
