Respuesta :
the term is a(n) = (n+1)^2
proof:
1^ = 1
2^2 = 4
3^2 = 9
4^2 =16
5^2 = 25 and so on

1^ = 1
2^2 = 4
3^2 = 9

First of all, if you look closely, the sequence is made up of perfect squares!
1 (1²), 4 (2²), 9 (3²), etc.
So to find out whatever term you want, simply follow this formula!
(Let n represent the term)
Let's say you want to find the 15th term:
n term = n²
(15th) term = (15)²
(15th) term = 225
Ta-da!
Or if you want to find the 305th term:
n term = n²
(305th) term = (305)²
(305th) term = 93025
Hope this helps!
