I can't seem to adjust my calendar view to see 5 days under the week view with my iPad Mini running iOS 9. How do I change the setup? I don't see an option in settings.

Like you, I had set iCal's week view to 14 days using the Debug menu in iCal under Lion before upgrading to Mountain Lion. However, at least for me, changing the value via Calendar>Preferences... did not permanently change the setting. When I restarted Calendar, it always reverted to the previous value (in my case, 14 days) if the value was not one of those available from the menu (i.e., 5 or 7).
There is another way to set the number of days shown in week view, and that's to use the following shell command:
defaults write com.apple.iCal CalUIDebugDefaultDaysInWeekView 7
This works where Calendar>Preferences... does not, for reasons I don't understand.
The "7" in the command above can be another number, including ones not previously available from Lion iCal's Debug menu, e.g., 10. However, I find that Mountain Lion's Calendar has a peculiar bug when the value is not 5 or 7: in week view, if you have moved the viewed range of dates such that today is not visible, then using View>Go To Today (or Command+T) does not move the days in the grid to show today. The title changes to the correct dates, but the days in the grid don't change to the correct range of dates.
(Hat tip to this posting for pointing out that the numerical value could be anything, not just a value shown in iCal's Debug menu.)
I use Week Calendar by UtiliTap instead of the built-in calendar - it's not a free app but it's not expensive and works really well.

The few things you can change in the native calendar app are under settings at the bottom of Mail, Contacts, Calendars:
You would need to download a custom calendar app to change the week view of your calendar data. The best I can manage is changing the week start date, which changes things everywhere.
