0.5n(n+1)
You can't figure out the rule for a sequence from a single number.
The nth term can be anything you like! However, the simplest poynomial that fits these points is given by the rule: Un = n2 + 2 for n = 1, 2, 3, ...
whats the nth term for 9,12,17,24,33
a maths solution
6n-5 is the nth term of this sequence
1254
0.5n(n+1)
The nth term is: 3n+2 and so the next number will be 20
You can't figure out the rule for a sequence from a single number.
In the study of sequences, given a number n, the position to term rule tells you how the nth term of the sequence is calculated.
The nth term is 4n - 3
The nth term = 9n-2
94 and you skip it by 8's
The nth term is 2n+5 and so the next number is 17
