The first term a = 1, 

Common difference, d: 7 - 1 = 6.

a(n) =  a + (n -1)d,        

For 30th term.      =  1 + (30 -1)*6
 
                             =  1 + 29*6 = 1 + 174 = 175

The 30th term of the given sequence is 175

What is arithmetic sequence ?

Arithmetic sequence is a sequence in which the differences between every consecutive terms are always same.

Example : 3, 5, 7, 9, ..... is an arithmetic sequence where the common difference is 2.

What is the formula of arithmetic sequence ?

Formula of arithmetic sequence is , [tex]a_{n}[/tex] = [tex]a_{1}[/tex] + (n-1)d

where [tex]a_{n}[/tex] =  term in the sequence,

[tex]a_{1}[/tex] =  [tex]1^{st\\}[/tex] term in the sequence,

d = common difference between terms

What is the required 30th term ?

Given sequence is, 1, 7, 13, 19, ....

Common difference (d) = 7-1=13-7=6

[tex]1^{st\\}[/tex] term in the sequence ([tex]a_{1}[/tex]) = 1

∴ [tex]a_{30}[/tex] = [tex]a_{1}[/tex] + (n-1)d

        = 1+(30-1)×6

        = 1+29×6

        = 1+174

        = 175

∴ 30th term is 175.
