Answer

$a_n=6.5n+59.5$

Work Step by Step

Here, we have $a_n= a_1+d(n-1)$ for the Arithmetic series. The common difference between the successive terms is $d=6.5$ and $a_5=92$ Here, we have $a_5= a_1-(5-1)d$ or, $a_5=a_1+4d \implies a_1=92-4(6.5)=66$ Now, $a_n=66+(6.5) \times (n-1)=6.5 n+59.5$ Hence, $a_n=6.5n+59.5$
