Answer:

  • The 12th term is 27.

Explanation:

We can tell that each number is getting added by 2's. Let's find the 12th term by using the formula.

  • => s + 2(n)

Where s is the starting term, and n is the total number of terms (Excluding s)

  • => 5 + 2(11)
  • => 5 + 22
  • => 27

Hence, the 12th term is 27.

Hoped this helped.

Answer:

27

Explanation:

5,7,9,11. ....

This is an arithmetic sequence.

First term = a₁ = 5

Common difference = d = second term - first term = 7 - 5 = 2

nth term = a₁ + (n-1)*d

12th term = 5 + (12 - 1) * 2

= 5 + 11*2

= 5 + 22

= 27
