Joaquin Gates · Answer 1

Term 1 → 1! = 1 + 3 = 4

term 2 → 2! = 1·2 = 2 + 3 = 5

term 3 → 3! = 1·2·3 = 6 + 3 = 9

term 4 → 4! = 1·2·3·4 = 24 + 3 = 27

term 5 → 5! = 1·2·3·4·5 = 120 + 3 = 123

So correct answer is B. "by finding the factorial of the term number, then adding 3 to the result", and next term is equal:

term 6 → 6! = 1·2·3·4·5·6 = 720 + 3 = 723
