Here \(a_1=5\), \(a_2=9\), \(a_3=13\)
Use \(T_n=a_1+(n-1)d\) to find d.
\(T_2=5+(2-1)d\)
\(9=5+d\)
\(d=9-5\)
\(d=4\)
Again use \(T_n=a_1+(n-1)d\) to find \(a_{43}\)
\(T_{43}=5+(43-1)4\)
\(=5+42*4\)
\(=5+168\)
\(=173\)
Is that clear?

It is a general formula.
\(T_n=a_n\)
d=common difference.

\(Tn=a_1+(n-1)d\).is a general formula
Here
\(T_n\)=\(n^{th}\) term
\(a_1\)=First term
d=common difference.
Ya sure post them.
