As per the details in the question the series is in the form of
First series :-
First term = 5
Second term = First term × 1 + 12 = 5 + 1 = 6
Third term = Second term × 2 + 22 = 12 + 4 = 16
similarly , we can calculate the all next terms .
Second series :-
First term = 2
Second term = First term × 1 + 12 = 2 + 1 = 3
Third term = Second term × 2 + 22 = 6 + 4 = 10Correct Option: E
As per the details in the question the series is in the form of
First series :-
First term = 5
Second term = First term × 1 + 12
⇒ Second term = 5 × 1 + 1 = 6
Third term = Second term × 2 + 22
⇒ Third term = 6 × 2 + 4 = 16
similarly , we can find the all others terms .
Second series :-
First term = 2
Second term = First term × 1 + 12
⇒ Second term = 2 × 1 + 1 = 3
Third term = Second term × 2 + 22
⇒ Third term = 3 × 2 + 4 = 10
Fourth term = Third term × 3 + 32
⇒ Fourth term = 10 × 3 + 9 = 39
Fifth term = Fourth term × 4 + 42
⇒ Fifth term = 39 × 4 + 16 = 172
Hence , the place value of ( d ) is 172 .

The given series is in the below pattern,
First term = 16
Second term = First term + 12 = ?
⇒ Second term = 16 + 12 = 17
∴ ? = 17
Third term = Second term 12 = 15 ;
Similarly , we can calculate all others terms also.Correct Option: A

Third term = Second term + 22
⇒ Third term = 17 + 22 = 21
Fourth term = Third term + 32
⇒ Fourth term = 21 + 32 = 30 ;
Fifth term = Fourth term + 42
⇒ Fifth term = 30 + 42 = 46 ;
Similarly , we can find all others terms also.
Sixth term = Fifth term + 52
⇒ Sixth term = 46 + 52 = 71;
Seventh term = Sixth term + 62
⇒ Sixth term = 71 + 62 = 107
Hence , Second term = 17

As per the details of question is given series in the form of ,
First series :-
First term = 1260
Second term = First term ÷ 2 - 2
⇒ Second term = 1260 ÷ 2 - 2 = 628
Third term = Second term ÷ 2 - 2
⇒ Third term = 628 ÷ 2 - 2 = 312
similarly , we can find the all others terms .
......... and so on .
Second series :-
First term = 788
Second term = First term ÷ 2 - 2 = 392
Third term = Second term ÷ 2 - 2 = 194Correct Option: B
