Let the sequence $a_{n}$ be defined as follows:

${a_1} = 1,{a_n} = {a_{n - 1}} + 2$ for $n\, \ge \,2$

Find first five terms and write corresponding series.

We have

$a_{1}=1, a_{2}=a_{1}+2=1+2=3, a_{3}=a_{2}+2=3+2=5$

$a_{4}=a_{3}+2=5+2=7, a_{5}=a_{4}+2=7+2=9$

Hence, the first five terms of the sequence are $1,3,5,7$ and $9 .$ The corresponding series is $1+3+5+7+9+\ldots$
