Adiel made a toothpick pattern with 9 toothpicks in the 1st figure, 14 in the 2nd figure, 19 in the 3rd figure and 24 in the 4th figure. Use a scatter plot to determine the figure number of the figure that requires 64 toothpicks. Then, use an algebraic expression to determine how many toothpicks it would take to build the 1000th figure in the sequence.
