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

Fibonacci sequence
4,8,12,16,20
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.
