Help re Sequences
My dd is stuck on her math homework. She is a year 7 but is following a year 8 curriculum (?). Anyway here is the question:
The nth term of sequences are given by the rules below. Use this to write down the first five terms of each sequence:
a. 2n-1
b. 2n+3
c.2n+2
d. 2n+1
Can anybody help me??

Simply put 1 into the equation, then 2 and so on to get the value of that term.
Example 2n-1
Term 1 ........ (2x1)-1 = 1
Term 2 .......... (2x2)-1 = 3
etc.
