![**Title: Formulate an Explicit Formula for a Sequence**
**Objective:**
Learn how to derive an explicit formula for the given sequence.
**Sequence Description:**
The sequence provided is:
\[ \left\{ \frac{10}{5}, \frac{12 - e^1}{8 + e^1}, \frac{13 - e^2}{12 + e^2}, \frac{14 - e^3}{16 + e^3}, \frac{15 - e^4}{20 + e^4}, \frac{16 - e^5}{24 + e^5}, \ldots \right\} \]
**Task:**
Find an explicit formula, \( a_n \), for the sequence.
**Attempted Answer:**
The initial attempt for an explicit formula is:
\[ a_n = \frac{(11 + n) - e^n}{4(n + 1) + e^n} \]
Unfortunately, it appears the formula was marked incorrect, as indicated by the red 'X' beside it. Further investigation is needed to find the correct explicit formula for the sequence.
**Study Notes:**
- Observe the pattern in both the numerators and denominators.
- Identify how modifications in numerators and denominators relate to powers of \( e \) and changes in the constants associated with each term.
- Use trial and error by plugging in different \( n \) values into potential formulations and comparing with the actual sequence terms.
**Conclusion:**
The task requires deriving a correct explicit formula for the given sequence, using detailed observations and mathematical skills.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F370ea171-8bb9-4b07-85c5-04ae9f865ef9%2F2b6cabb5-2225-4365-91fb-2122e2628314%2F20tw9e9_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
