How do you find the nth term of a linear sequence?

The coefficient of n is the common difference. Adjust the constant so the rule hits the first term, then check the second term.

What if the difference is not constant?

It is not a linear sequence. Second differences point at a quadratic nth term, which is Higher.

Is nth term on Foundation?

Linear nth terms are on Foundation and Higher. Quadratic nth terms are Higher.
