Question

What is the nth term of 4,9,16,25,36

Answer 1

Answer:

(n + 1)²

Step-by-step explanation:

note that 4, 9, 16, 25, 36 are square numbers

To generate the terms add 1 to the position n and square, that is

first term : n = 1 → n = 1 + 1 → 2² = 4

second term : n = 2 → n = 2 + 1 → 3² = 9

third term : n = 3 → n = 3 + 1 → 4² = 16

Hence n th term is (n + 1)²
