Asequence is described by the algebraic function f(x) = 5 – 2x. what is the first term what is the second term what is the tenth term

First term: 3

Second term: 1

Tenth Term: -15

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function f(x) = 5 - 2x is used to represent a sequence where the number of the term is the value of 'x'.  So, in the case of the each term, we would calculate the the answer for the term by placing the number of the term in place of 'x':

first term: 5 - 2(1) = 5 - 2 = 3

second term: 5 - 2(2) = 5 - 4 = 1

tenth term: 5 - 2(10) = 5 - 20 = -15

So, you can find the answer for any term by placing the number of the term in for the value of 'x' and solving.
