Answer 1

Take the starting point as the first natural number that is 1.

Explanation:

To find: a starting point so that the first 5 numbers in the sequence are all positive

Solution:

Natural numbers are numbers that are used for counting.

Natural numbers are basically positive integers.

Take the starting point as the first natural number that is 1.

The next point as 2.

The next point as 3.

The next point as 4.

The next point as 5.

So, the sequence becomes
`1,2,3,4,5,...` so that the first 5 numbers in the sequence are positive.
