Answer:
let a be the first term of the series and d be the common difference then
term n = a + ( n - 1 ) d
term 6 = 12 = a + 5d -------- ( 1 )
term 8 = 22 = a + 7d -------- ( 2 )
( 2 ) - ( 1 ) => 2d = 10
=> d = 5
( 1 ) => 12 = a + 5(5)
=> a = ( - 13 )
term n = a + ( n - 1 ) d
=> term n = ( - 13 ) + ( n - 1 ) d
