Make a conjecture about the next item in the sequence. 6, 9, 7, 10, 8?

"The next term should be 11"

Step-by-step explanation:

If we look closely at the sequence we can see:

second term is 3 more than previous

third term is 2 less than previous

fourth term is 3 more than previous

fifth term is 2 less than previous

We can see a pattern. To get next terms, we add 3, to get next to that, we subtract 2. It goes on like this.

Since 4th term to 5th term is "subtracting 2", logically 5th to 6th term (the term we are wanting) should be "add 3". So the term after 8 would be 11

The next term would be 11
