Answer

Final Answer: \(a_{6} = \boxed{35}\)

Steps

Step 1 ：Given the first term \(a_{1} = 5\) and the common difference \(d = 6\) of an arithmetic sequence, we are asked to find the sixth term \(a_{6}\).

Step 2 ：We use the formula for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence: \(a_{n} = a_{1} + (n-1) * d\).

Step 3 ：Substitute the given values into the formula: \(a_{6} = 5 + (6-1) * 6\).

Step 4 ：Simplify the expression to find the value of \(a_{6}\).

Step 5 ：Final Answer: \(a_{6} = \boxed{35}\)

Use the formula for the general term (the nth term) of an arithmetic sequence to find the sixth term of the sequence with the given first term and common difference.\[a_{1}=5 ; d=6\]\[a_{6}=\square\]
