5. Consider the pattern of block figures below. Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3 Figure 4 Jazlyn says her formula for the number of blocks in Figure n is (n + 1)(n+2). Jacarri says his formula for the number of blocks in Figure n is n + 3n+2. Jazlyn used algebra to see that her formula and Jacarri's formula are equivalent, however she does not see how Jacarri could have gotten that formula from the pictures. Where does each part of Jacarri's formula appear in the figures? 5. Consider the pattern of block figures below.
