- each next number is summation of cube of consecutive odd number and Previous one.Odd number is started with 3 e.g.
274 + 3^3 = 301
301 + 5^3 = 426
426 + 7^3 = 769
769 + 9^3 = 1498
1498 + 11^3 = 2829
2829 + 13^3 = 5026
Therefore wrong term is 2824. - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(0)
- Tn = T(n-1) + (2n-1)^3 , for n greater than 1, where n is an integer.
T2 = 274 + (2*2-1)^3 = 301
T3 = 301 + (2*3-1)^3 = 426
T4 = 426 + (2*4-1)^3 = 769
T5 = 769 + (2*5-1)^3 = 2824
T6 = 2824 + (2*6-1)^3 = 4155
Hence the sixth term is wrong. That is 5026.
