To find the 5th term of the sequence given by the function \( f(n) = 2n - 1 \), you need to substitute \( n = 5 \) into the formula.
\[
f(5) = 2(5) - 1
\]
\[
f(5) = 10 - 1
\]
\[
f(5) = 9
\]
Thus, the 5th term of the sequence is \( f(5) = 9 \).
\[
f(5) = 2(5) - 1
\]
\[
f(5) = 10 - 1
\]
\[
f(5) = 9
\]
Thus, the 5th term of the sequence is \( f(5) = 9 \).
