Answer:

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = 7n - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = 3 and d = a₂ - a₁ = 10 - 3 = 7 , thus

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = 3 + 7(n - 1) = 3 + 7n - 7 = 7n - 4
