: I'm trying to help my son with his homework and I can't even figure it out.
Write an expression for the pattern. 50+1, 50+2, 50+3,...
We've looked at using 50+n or n+1, n+2 n+3,... for n=50 These don't seem right either.
Are we making it seem more diificult than it really is?
Thank you! This question is from textbook Macmillan/McGraw -Hill Math

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Notice the only thing that changes is the +1, +2, +3, etc.

So the expression would be 50%2Bn where n starts at n=1. So you are correct.

Note: your book may list the answer as n%2B50
