One answer is:

t{n} = (59n⁵ - 885n⁴ + 5015n³ - 13275n² + 15446n - 4800)/120

Which gives:

t1 = (59 - 885 + 5015 - 13275 + 15446 - 4800)/120 = 1560/120 = 13

t2 = (59×32 - 885×16 + 5015×8 - 13275×4 + 15446×2 - 4800)/120 = 840/120 = 7

t3 = (59×243 - 885×81 + 5015×27 - 13275×9 + 15446×3 - 4800)/120 = 120/120 = 1

t4 = (59×1024 - 885×256 + 5015×64 - 13275×16 + 15446×3 - 4800)/120 = -600/120 = -5

t5 = (59×3125 - 885×625 + 5015×125 - 13275×25 + 15446×4 - 4800)/120 = -1320/120 = -11

t6 = (59×7776 - 885×1296 + 5015×216 - 13275×36 + 15446×5 - 4800)/120 = 5040/120 = 42

However, I expect your teacher is wanting the much simpler:

t{n} = 19 - 6n

which also gives t{1..5} = {13, 7, 1, -5, -11} but gives a different t6 = -17

The above formulae are only valid for n = 1, 2, ..., 5 as t6 is different.

What is the nth term for the sequence 1 6 13 22 33?

The given sequence is 1, 6, 13, 22, 33. To find the nth term, we can observe that the differences between consecutive terms are 5, 7, 9, and 11, which indicates that the sequence is quadratic. The nth term can be expressed as ( a_n = n^2 + n ), where ( a_n ) is the nth term of the sequence. Thus, the formula for the nth term is ( a_n = n^2 + n ).
