+59 The sum of the first n terms of a certain sequence is n(n+1)(n+2). Find the tenth term of the sequence.
In a sequence of ten terms, each term (starting with the third term) is equal to the sum of the two previous terms. The seventh term is equal to 6. Find the sum of all ten terms.
Given \( a_0 = 1 \) and \(a_1 = 5\) and the general relation \(a_n^2 - a_{n - 1} a_{n + 1} = (-1)^n\)
for \(n \ge 1\) find \(a_3\)

+129907 The sum of the first n terms of a certain sequence is n(n+1)(n+2). Find the tenth term of the sequence.
The first term is 1 ( 2) (3) = 6 = 6(1)
The sum of the first two terms = 2 (3) ( 4) = 24...so the second term = 18 = 6(3)
The sum of the first three terms = 3 * 4 * 5 = 60.....so the third term = 36 = 6(6)
The sum of the first four terms = 4 * 5 *6 = 120....so....the fourth term = 60 = 6(10)
So....it appears that the nth term = 6 * nth triangular number = 6 * n (n + 1) / 2
So....the 10th term is 6 * (10) ( 11) / 2 = 30 * 11 = 330
