Lesson 6 Compounding the Problem Develop Understanding
Use first and second differences to identify the pattern in each table as linear, quadratic, or neither. If the pattern is linear, write both the explicit and recursive equations. If the pattern is quadratic, write only the recursive equation. If the pattern is neither, identify it as neither and stop.
