32 and 5n + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

The pattern of the number of sticks is

7, 12, 17

There is a common difference of 5 between consecutive terms.

Thus to obtain the number of sticks in number 6 , add 5 to previous terms, that is

a₄ = 17 + 5 = 22

a₅ = 22 + 5 = 27

a₆ = 27 + 5 = 32

There are 32 sticks in pattern number 6

(b)

The sequence is arithmetic with n th term

= a₁ + (n - 1)d

Where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = 7 and d = 5 , then

= 7 + 5(n - 1) = 7 + 5n - 5 = 5n + 2

number of sticks in pattern number n is 5n + 2
