Answer:


a_(n) = 6n - 5

Explanation:

there is a common difference between consecutive terms in the sequence, that is

7 - 1 = 13 - 7 = 19 - 13 = 6

this indicates the sequence is arithmetic with nth term


a_(n) = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

here a₁ = 1 and d = 6 , then


a_(n) = 1 + 6(n - 1) = 1 + 6n - 6 = 6n - 5
