Type the missing numbers in this sequence: -96, -92, -88, -84, _____, _____, -72

Identify Pattern: Identify the pattern in the sequence. The sequence is increasing by 4 each time: -96, -92, -88, -84, ... To find the next number, we add 4 to the last number in the sequence. -84 + 4 = -80Find Next Number: Now that we have the next number in the sequence, we can find the one after that by adding 4 again. -80 + 4 = -76Check Sequence: Check the sequence to ensure that the pattern is consistent and that no math errors have been made. The sequence now reads: -96, -92, -88, -84, -80, -76, -72 Each number is 4 more than the previous number, which is consistent with the pattern we identified.

-84

, _____, _____,

-72

Identify Pattern: Identify the pattern in the sequence. $\newline$ The sequence is increasing by $4$ each time: $-96$ , $-92$ , $-88$ , $-84$ , ... $\newline$ To find the next number, we add $4$ to the last number in the sequence. $\newline$ $-84 + 4 = -80$
Find Next Number: Now that we have the next number in the sequence, we can find the one after that by adding $4$ again. $\newline$ $-80 + 4 = -76$
Check Sequence: Check the sequence to ensure that the pattern is consistent and that no math errors have been made. $\newline$ The sequence now reads: $-96, -92, -88, -84, -80, -76, -72$ $\newline$ Each number is $4$ more than the previous number, which is consistent with the pattern we identified.
