We have the sequence
:
0, 3, 12, 27, 48
;
we use the differences approach - we look for a level where the differences are the same
:
first level differences are 3, 9, 15, 21
second level differences are 6, 6, 6
:
we know the function is of the form y = k * x^2, where k is a constant
:
by inspection, the function is
:
y = 3 * x^2
:
therefore, for x = 5
:
y = 3 * 5^2 = 75
