Answer :

-----------------------------------------------
General formula :
-----------------------------------------------
[tex]T_n = a_1 + d(n - 1)[/tex]

-----------------------------------------------
Find [tex]a_1[/tex]:
-----------------------------------------------
[tex]d = 5, a_{12}= 63,[/tex]

[tex]T_{12} = a_1 + 5(12 - 1)[/tex]

[tex]63= a_1 + 5(11)[/tex]

[tex]a_1 = 63 - 55[/tex]

[tex]a_1 = 8[/tex]

-----------------------------------------------
Find equation for nth term :
-----------------------------------------------
[tex]a_1 = 8, d = 5,[/tex]

[tex]T_n = 8 + 5(n-1)[/tex]

[tex]T_n = 8 + 5n - 5[/tex]

[tex]T_n = 5n + 3[/tex]

-----------------------------------------------
[tex]\bf \text { Answer : }T_n = 5n + 3[/tex]
