Answers:


56. c. This is an alternating subtraction series in
which 2 is subtracted twice, then 3 is subtracted
once, then 2 is subtracted twice, and
so on.
57. a. This is a simple addition series with repetition.
It adds 3 to each number to arrive at
the next, which is repeated before 3 is added
again.
58. c. Here, there are two alternating patterns.
The first begins with 17 and adds 2; the second
begins with 32 and subtracts 3.
59. a. Two patterns alternate here. The first pattern
begins with 10 and adds 2 to each
number to arrive at the next; the alternating
pattern begins with 34 and subtracts 3 each
time.
60. a. This is an alternating repetition series. The
number 32 alternates with a series in which
each number decreases by 2.
