Answer:

Explanation:

In the given sequence, the terms are increasing in arithmetic progression. The common difference, d between successive terms is 2

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

Tn = a + (n - 1)d

Where

a represents the first term of the sequence.

d represents the common difference.

n represents the number of terms in the sequence.

From the information given,

a = 1

d = 2

Therefore, the expression for the general term for the sequence is

Tn = 1 + 2(n - 1)
