I don't know what you are saying... have you even tried it?

erm not really... not many people talk about the 0th term. sequences tend to start from the 1st term. |

Yes i tried it for all of the other options showed there, for example; inserting n=2 gives ((3^2)x3) which is equal to 27... when n=2 the number is 12......

Even though "not many people talk about it" as you say, it doesnt mean its not there. What if there was a part C to the question asking;
If n=0 what is the equivalent number in the sequence?

thanks for clarifying... i thought that you were actually talking about the same thing as Ddunk.
so (n^2)*3 still works
