Any two numbers that you choose can be next. It is easy to find a rule based on a polynomial of order 5 such that the first four numbers are as listed in the question followed by the chosen next number. There are also non-polynomial solutions. Short of reading the mind of the person who posed the question, there is no way of determining which of the infinitely many solutions is the "correct" one.For example, U(n) = (-4*x^4 + 40*x^3 - 140*x^2 + 215*x - 75)/3 gives the next number as 0,U(n) = (-31*x^4 + 310*x^3 - 1085*x^2 + 1670*x - 576)/24 gives the next number as 1, and so on.The simplest rue, based on a linear expression, gives U(5) = 32 and U(6) = 37.
17 and 5
-17, -22
No two of those numbers add to 17.
24
the answer is 42+12=17 and this is how to double check 42+12=17 16+1=17 17=17
The two numbers are 5 and 17.
12 and 5 are the numbers. 12 + 5 = 17 and 12 x 5 = 60Think of the factors first.1,602,303,204,155,12 We've got a winner!!!6,10
They are 33 and 65
The difference between the two numbers is 17
This list of numbers is the list of prime numbers. Following 11, the next two numbers in the list are 13 and 17.
11 and 8
If this refers to the SUM of two numbers then let the lesser number be represented by a. Then, a + (a + 5) = 17 : 2a + 5 = 17 : 2a = 12 : a = 6 So the two numbers are 6 and 11.
