i.
(a) F = 3n + 2
(b) F = 4n + 1
(c) F = 5n + 3
(d) F = 5n + 1
(e) F = 4n + 1
(f) F = 4n - 2
ii. 16th figure
(a) F = 3 x 16 + 2 = 50
(b) F = 4 x 16 + 1 = 65
(c) F = 5 x 16 + 3 = 83
(d) F = 5 x 16 + 1 = 81
(e) F = 4 x 16 + 1 = 65
(f) F = 4 x 16 - 2 = 62
iii. 30th figure
(a) F = 3 x 30 + 2 = 92
(b) F = 4 x 30 + 1 = 121
(c) F = 5 x 30 + 3 = 153
(d) F = 5 x 30 + 1 = 151
(e) F = 4 x 30 + 1 = 121
(f) F = 4 x 30 - 2 = 118
