Read each question carefully and follow the instructions to complete the graphing patterns exercises.

1. Consider the sequence: 3, 7, 11, 15, ... a) Describe the pattern in words.

b) What would be the next three numbers in the sequence?

2. Complete the table below using the rule y = 2x + 1.

x | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 --|---|---|---|---|--- y | _ | _ | _ | _ | _

3. Plot the points from the table below on the coordinate plane. Then, draw a line connecting the points.

x | -2 | -1 | 0 | 1 | 2 --|----|----|---|---|--- y | -4 | -2 | 0 | 2 | 4

-5-4-3-2-112345-5-4-3-2-112345

4. Which rule best describes the pattern shown in the graph?
