Question 210252
make a conjecture in terms of Q(n)(find the nth term) for the following sequence & then find the 100th term:
n= 1 2 3 4 5 6 
Q= 3 12 25 42 63 88 
-------------------------
I ran a Quadratic regression program on the data
and got f(n) = 2n^2 + 3n -2
-----------------------------------
f(100) = 2(100)^2 + 3(100) - 2 = 20298
================================================
