Find the sixth seventh and eighth term of the following sequence

1,4,9,17,29,…..

To find the sixth, seventh, and eighth terms of the given sequence: 

\[ 1, 4, 9, 17, 29, \ldots \]

we need to first identify a pattern. Let's calculate the differences between consecutive terms:

- \( 4 - 1 = 3 \)
- \( 9 - 4 = 5 \)
- \( 17 - 9 = 8 \)
- \( 29 - 17 = 12 \)

The differences between consecutive terms are increasing by a constant value:

- \( 5 - 3 = 2 \)


Find the sixth, seventh, and eighth term of the following sequence: 1, 4, 9, 17, 29, …..

Discover how to find the sixth, seventh, and eighth terms of the sequence: 1, 4, 9, 17, 29, by analyzing difference patterns and using arithmetic progression. This step-by-step guide is ideal for students in Grades 6-8.
