HELLO DEAR,
GIVEN:- Sm = 3m² + 4m,
S1 = 3 + 4 = a1 = 8
S2 = 12 + 8 = 20
and, S2 = a1 + a2
=> 20 = 7 + a2
=> a2 = 13
common diffrence d = a2 - a1 = 13 - 7 = 6
first term a = 7
an = a + (n - 1)d
now, put n = p
=> ap = 7 + (n - 1)6
=> ap = 6n + 1
hence, pth term is 6n + 1.
I HOPE IT'S HELP YOU DEAR,
THANKS
