a_n=n^2+1 \\ \\ a_1=1^2+1=1+1=2 \\ a_2=2^2+1=4+1=5 \\ a_3=3^2+1=9+1=10 \\ a_4=4^2+1=16+1=17 \\ a_5=5^2+1=25+1=26 \\ a_6=6^2+1=36+1=37

or:


a_n=n^(2+1) \\ a_1= 1^(2+1) =1^3=1 \\ a_2=2^(2+1)=2^3=8 \\ a_3=3^(2+1) =3^3=27 \\ a_4=4^(2+1) =4^3=64 \\ a_5=5^(2+1) =5^3=125 \\ a_6=6^(2+1) =6^3=216

Hello!

You put the numbers 1 to 6 in for n

=
1^(2+1)= 1
=
2^(2+1)= 8
=
3^(2+1)= 27
=
4^(2+1)= 64
=
5^(2+1)= 125
=
6^(2+1)= 216

The first 6 numbers are 1, 8, 27, 64, 125, 216

Hope this helps!
