We know that the n-th term of an arithmetic progression is given by . So we need to find the coefficients and . In order to do this, we substitute the values and in the expression for :
Now, notice that we have two linear equations with two unknowns, which it is not difficult to solve. Thus, the solution is and .
Hence, the expression for the n-th term is
We can check that the expression is correct substituting the values which gives and which gives , as it is given in the statement of the problem.
