complete this pattern.. I do not have the answer. Fill in the blanks1,4,9,61,52,63,__,__,__,__,__?

Answer 1

Cute question. It's actually simple once you realize the pattern. They're numbers squared, but with the digits reversed. So 1 squared is 1, 2 squared is 4, 3 squared is 9, 4 squared is 16 (61 reversed), 5 squared is 25 (52 reversed), 6 squared is 36 (63 reversed), etc...

So the next 3 in the pattern are 94, 46, and 18.

Answer 2

I kinda like -12, but you can put in any number you like.

The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra guarantees that I can **always** find at least one polynomial (of degree n-1) which will fit through any set of n points.
