The formula for determining the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as

Tn = a + (n - 1)d

Where

Tn represennts the value of the nth term

a represents the first term

d represents the common difference

n reprsents the number of terms

Looking at the given sequence,

a = 3

d = 11 - 3 = 8

Therefore, the function that represents the sequence is

Tn = 3 + (n - 1)8
