In order to find the unknown term in a number sequence, you first need to calaculate the advantage of the numbers.
Extending a pattern is easy. Simply identify the pattern and ensure it keeps repeating. For example, if the sequence is 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10, it is easy to see that the numbers are increasing by 2 each time. The pattern would extend to 12, 14, 16, 18, 20 and so on infinitely.
To determine the missing numbers in the sequence 70 -- 84, we need to identify the pattern between the two known numbers. The difference between 70 and 84 is 14. To find the missing numbers, we need to continue the pattern of adding 14 to the previous number. Therefore, the missing numbers in the sequence are 98 and 112.
You cant solve the next term (next number) in this sequence. You need more terms, because this is either a "quadratic sequence", or a "linear and quadratic sequence", and you need more terms than this to solve a "linear and quadratic sequence" and for this particular "quadratic sequence" you would need more terms to solve nth term, which would solve what the next number is. If this is homework, check with your teacher if he wrote the wrong sum.
To guess a rule for a pattern, you need several numbers, not just one. Of course, you can invent any rule, for example, "all numbers in the sequence are equal to -4", or some more complicated rule.

To specify the next number, you would need to recognize some sort of pattern. The numbers are different squares and cubes; but they seem to be in some random order.
Any ordered set of numbers (and other things) is a sequence. There need not be any discernible pattern to the sequence (Brownian motion, for example), or a pattern which is understood only by the person who defined the sequence. With the last category in mind, every ordered set of numbers is a correct sequence.
you only need a pattern
A spatial sequence refers to a set of events separated in space - irrespective of their separation in time. A time sequence is the other way around. Sequences need not repeat themselves, but are more interesting to many people if they are. An example of a repeating spatial sequence may be the pattern of bricks in a wall. The pattern repeats itself after some distance. An example of a repeating time sequence is the seasons of the year.
it is the orderly visual search pattern
To determine the missing number in the sequence 20, 0.8, we need to identify the pattern. One possible pattern is that each number is being divided by 10. In this case, 0.8 divided by 10 equals 0.08. Therefore, the missing number would be 0.08.
