color(orange)83

Explanation:

Equation:
color(red)(2n+1, 2n+2, 2n+3,2n+4.......)

color(red)(2n+1)=2xx4+1=color(magenta)9
color(red)(2n+2)=2xx9+2=color(magenta)19
color(red)(2n+3)=2xx19+2=color(magenta)40
color(red)(2n+4)=2xx40+2=color(magenta)83
color(red)(2n+5)=2xx83+5=color(magenta)170

therefore The missing number is color(orange)83
