Given the function notation for the explicitly defined sequence f(n) = 2 ^ (n - 1) find the fifth term of the sequence . (1 point ) f(5) =
To find the fifth term of the sequence when the function is explicitly defined as f(n) = 2^(n-1), we need to substitute 5 for n in the function.
f(5) = 2^(5-1)
= 2^4
= 16
Therefore, the fifth term of the sequence is 16.

Apologies for the incorrect response. Indeed, I made a mistake in my previous answer.
Let's re-evaluate the function correctly.
f(n) = 2^(n-1)
To find the fifth term of the sequence, we substitute n = 5 into the function:
f(5) = 2^(5-1) = 2^4 = 16
Therefore, the fifth term of the sequence is 16.
