Exercise Question 1 (Page 177) Using the explicit rule ๐‘ข_๐‘›=2๐‘›โˆ’1, find the 53rd term, the 108th term, and the 1170th term of the odd number sequence. Given ๐‘ข_๐‘›=2๐‘›โˆ’1 Now, 53rd term = ๐‘ข_53 = 2(53)โˆ’1 = 106 โ€“ 1 = 105 108th term = ๐‘ข_108 = 2(108)โˆ’1 = 216 โ€“ 1 = 215 1170th term = ๐‘ข_1170 = 2(1170)โˆ’1 = 2340 โ€“ 1 = 2339
