Answer:

6n - 5

Explanation:

We find the jump between every 2 terms :

7 - 1 = 6

13 - 7 = 6

19 - 13 = 6

Now we know this will be the co-efficient of n and the 0th term will be added to the term :

1 - 6 = -5

So our final answer will be 6n + (- 5 ) = 6n - 5

Hope this helped and have a good day
