Identify the first five terms of the sequence in which an = 3n − 1 + 1.

The first five terms of the sequence represented as an = 3(n -1) + 1 are 1,4, 7, 10 and 13

How to determine the first five terms?

The formula of the sequence is given as:

an = 3(n -1) + 1

The above sequence is an arithmetic sequence, and the first five terms are the values of the sequence when the value of n is from 1 to 5

i.e. n = 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5

Next, we set n = 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, and substitute these values for n in an = 3(n -1) + 1

So, we have the following equations

First term

a1 = 3(1 -1) + 1 = 1

Second term

a2 = 3(2 -1) + 1 = 4

Third term

a3 = 3(3 -1) + 1 = 7

Fourth term

a4 = 3(4 -1) + 1 = 10

Fifth term

a5 = 3(5 -1) + 1 = 13

Hence, the first five terms of the sequence represented as an = 3(n -1) + 1 are 1,4, 7, 10 and 13
