Thanks in advance
Answer by usyim88hk(158)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! ok, the first five terms means when n is equal to 1,2,3,4,and 5
so, when n is one, a(n) is 1^2 + 1 , whcih is 2
when n is two, a(n) is 2^2 + 1 , which is 5
when n is three, a(n) is 3^2 + 1, which is 10
when n is four, a(n) is 4^2 + 1, which is 17
when n is five, a(n) is 5^2 + 1, which is 26
~~~
So the first five terms are 2,5,10,17,and 26
