Let's analyze the sequence from the image: 15, 16, 20, 29, ..., ...

We will try to find a pattern and predict the next two terms of the sequence.

• From 15 to 16, there is an increase of +1.
• From 16 to 20, there is an increase of +4.
• From 20 to 29, there is an increase of +9.

These increments correspond to the sequence of perfect squares (1², 2², 3²). So, it seems like the next increment could be +16 (which is 4²) and then +25 (which is 5²) for the following term.

• The next term after 29 should be $29 + 16 = 45$.
• The term after 45 should be $45 + 25 = 70$.

So, the next two terms are 45 and 70. Let's now match this with the options provided:

• a. 20, 30
• b. 30, 40
• c. 40, 50
• d. 50, 60
• e. 60, 70

The correct answer is e. 60, 70.
