What formula can we use to find the 10th term?

Answer 1

(1) 17 (2) +3 every new term (5+3) or 8+3) or 5+x*3

we can use this as to find 2nd number (1) as its first one to be found 5+3(1) 5+3=8

(3) 5+9*3=5+27 , 32

(4) 5+9*3 ,

we can test this out by counting

starter: 5

1 -> 8

2-> 11

3-> 14

4 -> 17

5 -> 20
