Answer:
The first eight beads that are white are: 1,5,9,13,17,21,25,29
The rule for the pattern is. if n is a number of bead that is white, the next number of bead that is white is n+4
Step-by-step explanation:
The first beads are:
bead color
1 w
2 b
3 b
4 b
5 w
6 b
7 b
8 b
where w refers to white and b to blue
If n is a number of bead that is white, the next number of bead that is white is n+4. We know that the first bead is white (n = 1), then the bead n = 1 + 4 = 5 is also white. Therefore, the bead n = 5 + 4 = 9 is white and so on. The first eight beads that are white are: 1,5,9,13,17,21,25,29 .
