Good at math? PLEASE Click Here!
I'm having trouble writing this in set builder notation. SBN Sucks. Here's the problem
{1,4,9,16,25,36,49,64,81}
Can anyone help?

4. Set builder Notation.
It's like if you say
{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12}
This is that in set builder notation: {x|x= N < 13)
And that says X such that x equals the natural numbers less than 13.

9. So wouldn't that be
{x2 | x = N ≤ 9}?

3. Looks simple, increasing by 2 more every time
100, 121, 144, 169, etc.

The first number increased by 3, from 1 to 4. Every subsequent addition is 2 mored than the previous -- 5,7,9, etc.

5. Well, I've figured out that every time they add the next number...
in the multiples of three.
1,4,9, etc...
1+3=4, 4+5=9, etc.
I just don't know how to say that.
