The symbol ^ is generally used to denote exponents or powers. For ex : 2^3 = 8 (which simply means that 2 is raised to the power 3 , which results in 8) More examples : 5^2 = 25. 6^2 = 36

The first term, t1=a = 7. The common difference, b=13 - 7=6. Last term or the nth term, tn=a + (n-1)b = 205. So, we have, 7 + (n - 1)6 = 205 --> (n - 1) = (205 - 7)/6 = 33 --> n = 34. Answer: Number of terms is 34.
