Answer:

Answer:

Kaya's answer is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of dots in successive figures are

8, 16, 24.

So Kaya's solution 8n is correct.

When n = 1, first square = 8*1 = 8 dots

n = 2: second square = 8*2 = 16

n = 3, 3rd square = 8*3 = 24.

If I have interpreted Kianna's formula correctly

for n = 1, then the number of dots = 2(1+ 1)^2 - 2(1 - - 1)^2

= 0.
