There are infinitely many possible answers. Given ANY number, it is always possible to find a polynomial of order 5 [at most] that can be used as the nth term rule for the given five number and the additional sixth. There are also non-polynomial solutions. Each different sixth number will result in a different polynomial and, since there are infinitely many sixth numbers, there are infinitely many answers to the question.

Having said that, the simplest polynomial solution is Un = 9n - 2

What is the nth term of 20 29 38 47?

We note that there are a difference of '9' between terms . Hence '9n' Next find the constant 'c' 1st term ; 9(1) + c = 20 => c = 11 2 nd term ; 9(2) + c = 29 => c = 11 nth term is 9n + 11 e.g. 7th term is 9(7) + 11 = 63 + 11 = 74

What is the 20th term of the following sequence-6 -4 -2 0?

As can be seen, each succesive term is 2 greater than the last. We can write a rule to calculate the nth term. Here the rule equals 2n - 8. So the 20th term = (2 * 20) - 8 = 32.
