What Comes Next In The Sequence?

2, 12, 36, 80, 150, 252, 392, _ ?

Answer:

The series follows the following pattern


Square of n + cube of n

Where n is an integer ascending one at a time, starting from 1.

n = 1 => 1^2 + 1^3 = 1 + 1 = 2

n = 2 => 2^2 + 2^3 = 4 + 8 = 12

and so on…

Therefore the next number will be

8^2 + 8^3 = 576

The answer is 576
