Kenojuak is building an igloo with her family. She wants to stack blocks of snow in a
circular arrangement with 10 rows. There is one block at the top, and 4 blocks in the 2nd row, 7
blocks in the 3rd row, and so on. Kenojuak needs to know the number of blocks of snow to carve for
the whole igloo. Order the steps she takes to solve the problem.

calculations by extending the table of values. | B. | She notices a

row and the 9th row. | C. | She knows that each row has 3 more blocks than the row above.
