D Correct answer
Explanation

The pattern is: 5*2-1=9, 9*2-2=16, 16*2-3=29, 29*2-4=54, 54*2-5=103, 103*2-6=200.

AI explanation

This series follows a pattern where each term is multiplied by 2, and then a sequentially decreasing odd number is subtracted. To find the missing term, multiply the previous term, 103, by 2 to get 206. Then subtract 6 from 206 to find the final result of 200.
