Top tip. The worst one is getting woken up in the morning with french homework, that really sucks.

2) find the next 3 terms in the sequence 8,14,20,26,32 (thinks this is easy)
a) What is the formula for the sequence? (bugger)
b) Use this to find the 60th term in the sequence (ffs)
c) What is n when the number in the sequence is 68 (*stabs brain with cotton wool bud*)

2) 38, 44 and 50

a) 6n + 2

b) 6x60 = 360 360+2 Answer = 362

c) 68-2 = 66. 66 divided 6= 11. Answer n = 11

I'd like to claim credit, but my son did the last two more neatly than I did!

Cool i got the right answers :lux:

i got to 6n + 2 by using the formula 8 + 6(n -1), but dunno if i need to put that down first, or whether theres an easier way.

For algerba standards thats probably one of the simple questions. One of those topics I used to hate and then had to do it at uni.

Its such a pointless subject 99.99% of the time isn't it. You must have been gutted when you thought you would never have to do it again :)

......or we're both wrong. :eek:

I liked algebra as it's satisfying when you crack it.

But when I progressed to Additional Maths, I found I reached a tipping point with it. Might also have been because the teacher was trying to cover the whole course in under 6 months!

posting up homework in future might have legs though, especially if its going to get harder.
