The correct Answer is:
To find the first five terms of the sequence defined by the nth term \( a_n = \frac{2n - 3}{6} \), we will substitute \( n \) with values from 1 to 5. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Calculate \( a_1 \)**: \[ a_1 = \frac{2(1) - 3}{6} = \frac{2 - 3}{6} = \frac{-1}{6} \] 2. **Calculate \( a_2 \)**: \[ a_2 = \frac{2(2) - 3}{6} = \frac{4 - 3}{6} = \frac{1}{6} \] 3. **Calculate \( a_3 \)**: \[ a_3 = \frac{2(3) - 3}{6} = \frac{6 - 3}{6} = \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2} \] 4. **Calculate \( a_4 \)**: \[ a_4 = \frac{2(4) - 3}{6} = \frac{8 - 3}{6} = \frac{5}{6} \] 5. **Calculate \( a_5 \)**: \[ a_5 = \frac{2(5) - 3}{6} = \frac{10 - 3}{6} = \frac{7}{6} \] ### Final Result: The first five terms of the sequence are: \[ a_1 = -\frac{1}{6}, \quad a_2 = \frac{1}{6}, \quad a_3 = \frac{1}{2}, \quad a_4 = \frac{5}{6}, \quad a_5 = \frac{7}{6} \]
