For the given sequence the simplest formula for the nth term is:

U{n} = n² + 3n - 2

However, that will only work if the sequence continues 68, 86, 106, 128, 152, ... (the difference between successive terms being the difference between the previous 2 terms plus 2).

If the sequence continues differently, then a different polynomial formula with higher powers will be required.
