Vanessa is making a sequence of shapes out of tiles. She creates a table comparing the sequence number of a shape to the number of tiles needed to make it:

\text{Sequence} \\ \text{number } \left(n\right)123456
\text{Number of} \\ \text{tiles } \left(T\right)357
a

How many new tiles are added at each step?

b

Find how many tiles Vanessa will need to make the next three shapes in the sequence by completing the table of values.

c

An equation to represent the relationship between a shape's sequence number and the number of tiles needed can be written in the form T=s+(n-1)d, where s is the starting number of tiles and d is the number of new tiles added each step.

i
Write an equation to represent the relationship between a shape's sequence number and the number of tiles needed in the form given.
ii
Rewrite the equation found in the form T=an+b.
d

Find how many tiles Vanessa will need to make the 20th shape in the sequence.
