|---|---|---|
| No with reason | 3 | M1 for 17, 20 or \(+3\) or \(3n + 2\) M1 for method to show that 34 is not in the sequence eg continue sequence to at least 32 eg attempt to solve \(3n + 2 = 34\) C1 (dep on M2) for statement with conclusion eg No with 32, 35 shown eg \(n = 32 \div 3\) which is not a whole number |
