f(n) = n2 + 1
This has an infinite number of input values, starting in negative infinity, and going to positive infinity. However, if what you mean to ask is what are the first three terms if you keep inputting the output you get back into the equation, that all depends on where you start. Let's say you start from 1.
f(1) = 12 + 1 = 2
f(2) = 22 + 1 = 5
f(5) = 52 + 1 = 26
12+7=8, 22+7=11, 32+7=16, 42+7=23

Fibonacci sequence
Each number in the sequence is 8 times the previous term, hence the next three terms are: 204.8, 1638.4 and 13107.2
You could be asking two different things, but most likely the first."What is the next number in the sequence 972, 324, 108?"To determine the next number in a sequence you need to define the rule of the sequence first. The rule is the relationship between two of the terms. Let's compare the terms.972:324=3:1324:108=3:1972 is three times the value of 324. 324 is three times the value of 108. This means that each number is one-third the size of the previous number. Label the next number X.X=108/3X=36The sequence is 972, 324, 108, 36."What is the next number in the sequence 972324108?"In math, a sequence is a list of numbers in a special order. Multiple numbers are needed to created a sequence. 972324108 is only one number and therefore is not a sequence.If you are asking what number comes after 972324108, 972324109 comes after it.
Which sequence? Oh, that one! The first three terms are 1, 2 and 72.
The first four terms are 3 9 27 81 and 729 is the 6th term.

a+a*r+a*r^2+...+a*r^n a = first number r = ratio n = "number of terms"-1
In order to find the unknown term in a number sequence, you first need to calaculate the advantage of the numbers.
2,1,0 is th sequence of its terms
That's an arithmetic sequence.

A number sequence is an ordered set of numbers. There can be a rule such that the next number in the sequence can be determined by the values of some or all of the preceding terms in the sequence. However, the sequence for a random walk illustrates that such a rule is not necessary to define a sequence.
the first 4 terms of the sequence which has the nth term is a sequence of numbers that that goe together eg. 8,12,16,20,24 the nth term would be 4n+4
