The correct Answer is:
To find the fifth term of the sequence given by the general term \( A_n = n(n + 1)(2n + 1) \), we will substitute \( n = 5 \) into the formula. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the General Term**: The general term of the sequence is given by: \[ A_n = n(n + 1)(2n + 1) \] 2. **Substitute \( n = 5 \)**: To find the fifth term, substitute \( n \) with 5: \[ A_5 = 5(5 + 1)(2 \cdot 5 + 1) \] 3. **Calculate \( 5 + 1 \)**: Calculate \( 5 + 1 \): \[ 5 + 1 = 6 \] 4. **Calculate \( 2 \cdot 5 + 1 \)**: Calculate \( 2 \cdot 5 + 1 \): \[ 2 \cdot 5 + 1 = 10 + 1 = 11 \] 5. **Combine the Results**: Now substitute back into the equation: \[ A_5 = 5 \cdot 6 \cdot 11 \] 6. **Calculate \( 5 \cdot 6 \)**: First, calculate \( 5 \cdot 6 \): \[ 5 \cdot 6 = 30 \] 7. **Calculate \( 30 \cdot 11 \)**: Now multiply \( 30 \) by \( 11 \): \[ 30 \cdot 11 = 330 \] 8. **Final Result**: Thus, the fifth term \( A_5 \) is: \[ A_5 = 330 \] ### Final Answer: The fifth term of the sequence is \( \boxed{330} \).
