If

is the common difference between terms in the sequence

, then



...

You're told that

(the sum of the first 16 terms in the sequence, presumably). Well, we know that


Recall that

so that we have

So we get
Answer:
.
Step-by-step explanation:
(3 , -4) ; slope(m) = 2/3
y - y1 = m (x -x1)
![y - [-4] = \frac{2}{3}(x - 3)\\\\y + 4 = \frac{2}{3}x - 3*\frac{2}{3}\\\\y +4 = \frac{2}{3}x-2\\\\ y = \frac{2}{3}x - 2 - 4\\\\ y = \frac{2}{3}x - 6](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%20-%20%5B-4%5D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%28x%20-%203%29%5C%5C%5C%5Cy%20%2B%204%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7Dx%20-%203%2A%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%5C%5C%5C%5Cy%20%2B4%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7Dx-2%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%20y%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7Dx%20-%202%20-%204%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%20%20y%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7Dx%20-%206)
