    5, 14, 23, 32, 41....1895 What term is the number 1895?

    Set up a point slope for the first 2 points:
    (1, 5)(2, 14)

    Using point slope formula, our series function is:
    f(n) = 9n - 4

    To find what term 1895 is, we set 9n - 4 = 1895 and solve for n:
    9n - 4 = 1895

    Using our equation solver, we get:
    n = 211
