You can do this:
2, 12, 29, 61, 116, 202, 327
10, 17, 32, 55, 86, 125
7, 15, 23, 31, 39
8, 8, 8, 8
But, much better idea is to find a "closed form" for the next term, which in this case is:
a_(n-1) = 4 n^2 - 5 n + 11
a_(8-1) = 4*7^2 - 5*7 + 11
a_(8-1) = 172 - Then you would add this to the last term: 327 + 172 =499 which is the 8th term. And if you continue like this, your sequence will be: 2, 12, 29, 61, 116, 202, 327, 499, 726, 1016, 1377, 1817, 2344, 2966, 3691, 4527, .....etc.
