Caleb studied Malia's sequence and created the following equation to generalize the pattern he noticed: T=3r +1.  In Caleb's equation,

T represents the total number of tiles in a figure

r represents the number of rows that have 3 tiles

What is the total number of tiles in figure 16?

46.

The number of rows with 3 tiles is always one less than the figure number, so figure 16 would have 15 of those rows.  So, r=15 and therefore


T=3(15)+1=46 tiles
