See explanation.

Explanation:

To find $n - t h$ $n-th$ term of a sequence you have to substitute $n$ $n$ in the formula. As an example I will calculate the first term of each sequence.

Examples:

$a_{1} = 1 + 4 = 5$ $a_color(red)(1)=color(red)(1)+4=5$
$a_{1} = 2 \cdot 1 - 3 = - 1$ $a_color(red)(1)=2*color(red)(1)-3=-1$
$a_{1} = 12 - 3 \cdot 1 = 9$ $a_color(red)(1)=12-3*color(red)(1)=9$
