One pattern that I see is that the numbers are all primes
OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):
hmm the difference is always prime
7 19 37 61 so maybe that
OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):
ha
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah, what @zzr0ck3r said
OpenStudy (anonymous):
series x^3-1

huh?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
1^3-1,2^2-1,3^3-1
OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):
yeah
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I think it is the addition of prime numbers that gives the next number in the sequence
OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):
for some reason I read 19 was in there....

That would be the most logical answer
OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):
nah its \(n^3-1\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[x ^{3}-1 where x=1,2,3,.....\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
7, 19, 37... etc
OpenStudy (anonymous):
but there is a problem with that because the the next prime number after 7 is 11 so you are right, that doesn't work

\(\{n^3-1 \ | \ n\in \mathbb{N}\}\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I'm not even sure what that is
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what is n^3 - 1? is that the cube of a number and subtract 1?
OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):
lol the answer is 215
OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):
yes

1^3-1 = 0
2^3-1 = 7
3^3-1 = 26
4^3-1 = 63
5^3-1 = 124
6^3-1 = 215
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh I got it, good problem
