  1. 5 square is 25


  2. 25 is answer.

    25 = 5²

  3. 25...

  4. 25, as you write the number in order and wirite it's square, then continue with the next number (2), Write the square(4), Then next3, and it's aquare and it goes on

  5. 25


  6. 25, 6, 36, 7, ...

  7. err...25

  8. 25, It is going something times itself then the answer.    

  9. as u can see:

    there are 2 sequence:

    1.) 1,2,3,4, ----> NEXT IS 5

    2.) 1,4,9,16----> 4-1=3..9-4= 5..16-9=7 so the next number to be subtracted is 9....16+5= 25

    3,5,7,25

    then the next number would be 5,25

  10. 25

    I goes like this 1then square of 1, 2 then square of 2.....

  11. Its simple....Next number will be 25.    

    How bcz when u look on pattern a second number is square of first number.. so next number will be 25.

  12. 1, 1^2, sqrt(1)+1, 2^2, sqrt(4)+1, 3^2, sqrt(9)+1, 4^2, sqrt(16)+1 ...?

    On every 2n term is equal to the previous term squared. Every 2n - 1 term, the result is the previous term's sqrt then added one.

    Also, you can consider each two terms as a pair, with the last being a square of the previous term, such as (2,4) then (3,9) then (4,16). The first number always increases by 1 and the second number is the square of the first.

    Edit: Forgot to give my answer. The answer is 5^2 = 25

  13. 25
