No exponents are used. You have an arithmetic sequence.

Sequence pattern is for index n.
You are asking for the value of the number for index n=205.

.
This is not exponential.
Let P= number of place
The progression is linear:
Value=5+5P.
.
The first place is:
5+5P=5+5(1)=5+5=10
.
The second place:
5+5P=5+5(2)=5+10=15
.
The third place:
5+5P=5+5(3)=5+15=20
.
The hundredth place:
5+5P=5+5(100)=5+500=505
.
The 205th place:
5+5P=5+5(205)=5+1025=1030
