FORMULA
Empirical: a(n) = (1391/20160)*n^8 + (197/252)*n^7 + (1819/480)*n^6 + (3719/360)*n^5 + (5593/320)*n^4 + (1369/72)*n^3 + (66343/5040)*n^2 + (2257/420)*n + 1.
Conjectures from Colin Barker, Oct 31 2018: (Start)
G.f.: x*(71 + 548*x + 1373*x^2 + 623*x^3 + 222*x^4 - 83*x^5 + 36*x^6 - 9*x^7 + x^8) / (1 - x)^9.
a(n) = 9*a(n-1) - 36*a(n-2) + 84*a(n-3) - 126*a(n-4) + 126*a(n-5) - 84*a(n-6) + 36*a(n-7) - 9*a(n-8) + a(n-9) for n>9.
