Which of the following sequences has an explicit rule of the quadratic form \(a_n=pn^2+qn+r\), where \(p\ne0\)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 2, 5, 10, 17, 26, ...

In option A, the first differences are \(3,5,7,9\), so the second difference is constantly \(2\). A constant second difference indicates a quadratic rule. Option B has constant first differences and is linear. Exam tip: make a difference table to classify a sequence.
