What is the general term of the sequence (3,6,11,20,\ldots)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \(a_n=2^n+n\)

Substituting \(n=1,2,3,4\) in \(a_n=2^n+n\) gives \(3,6,11,20\), respectively. Hence, the correct general term is \(a_n=2^n+n\). Although \(a_n=n^2+2\) matches the first three terms, it gives \(18\), not \(20\), when \(n=4\). Exam tip: verify a proposed rule using at least four given terms.
