Is it a regular math-class quiz?

Does your problem look as follows:

If:

3+8=30 and

5+11=75
and

7+13=133 and

9+17=225 then

13+25=???
 
3 + 8 = 30
5 + 11 = 75
7 + 13 = 133
9 + 17 = 225
13 + 25 = ___

Okay. What have you tried so far? What patterns, if any, have you detected? What method(s), if any, have you tried to apply?

For instance, we can see the following:

. . . . .8 = 3 + 5

. . . . .11 = 5 + 6

. . . . .13 = 7 + 6

. . . . .17 = 9 + 8

So we don't seem to have any useful patterns there. We can see the following:

. . . . .30 = 3*10

. . . . .75 = 5*15

. . . . .133 = 7*19

. . . . .225 = 9*25

Then we can note that:

. . . . .10 = 8 + 2

. . . . .15 = 11 + 4

. . . . .19 = 13 + 6

. . . . .25 = 17 + 8

Then we see that:

. . . . .2 = 2*1

. . . . .4 = 2*2

. . . . .6 = 2*3

. . . . .8 = 2*4

Do these investigations lead anywhere useful?

Please reply showing all of your work, including your consideration of the above. Thank you! ;)
