The nth term of the sequence is 2n - 8
<h3>Equation of a function</h3>
The nth term of an arithmetic progression is expressed as;
Tn = a + (n - 1)d
where
a is the first term
d is the common difference
n is the number of terms
Given the following parameters
a = f(1)=−6
f(2) = −4
Determine the common difference
d = f(2) - f(1)
d = -4 - (-6)
d = -4 + 6
d = 2
Determine the nth term of the sequence
Tn = -6 + (n -1)(2)
Tn = -6+2n-2
Tn = 2n - 8
Hence the nth term of the sequence is 2n - 8

Answer:
a)
28000 + 3000·x = 36000 + 2000·x --> x = 8 years
b)
28000 + 3000·8 = $52000
