Question

Write down the fifth term of the sequence that has its nth term:

a)6n+4
b)n^2 +5
plsssssssssss help asap ill give braniliest

Answer 1

a) 34

b) 30

Explanation:

so the nth term is just the position on the term, so if u want to find the 5th term you just have to substitute 5 in for n and solve!

a) 6n + 4

= 6(5) + 4

= 30 + 4

= 34 --> the 5th term for a sequence defined by 6n+4 is 34

b) n^2 + 5

= (5)^2 + 5

= 25 + 5

= 30 --> the 5th term for a sequence defined by n^2 + 5 is 30

hope this helps!
