Given the function notation for the explicitly defined sequence f(n)=2n−1, find the fifth term of the sequence.(1 point)

f(5)=

1 answer

To find the fifth term of the sequence defined by the function \( f(n) = 2n - 1 \), we need to evaluate \( f(5) \).

\[ f(5) = 2(5) - 1 \] \[ f(5) = 10 - 1 \] \[ f(5) = 9 \]

Thus, the fifth term of the sequence is:

\[ \boxed{9} \]
