There were two methods we looked at for solving this type of problem....

1) Identify the pattern rule, which is "start at 10, add 4 each time," and then create a table to find all the terms up to 15.

2) Identify a recursive pattern rule and use it to find only the number of tiles in the 7th and 15th designs ("start at 10, add 4 one less time than the design number").  So for design 7, the answer would be 10 + (6x4) = 10 + 24 = 34.  
For design 15, the solution would be 10 + (14x4) = 10 + 56 = 66
