Given the pattern:

  • 9, 16, 25, 36, 49

In words, this pattern represents:

  • the sequence of perfect squares of consecutive integers starting from 3.

The numbers are obtained by squaring the integers 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7, respectively.

Algebraically, we can represent the pattern using the formula:

  • t(n) = (n + 2)², where t(n) is the nth term
