In one turn of the wheel, you will move the circumference of the wheel. To find the circumference, you just do π × diameter, so π × 34 = 106.8 inches. In 5 turns, you will just go 5 times the circumference, so you multiply by 5 to get 534.1 inches. I hope this helps!
How I understand from your writing next term is equal previous plus 3,
if 1st is -4, then next (second) should be -4+3= -1
9x + 1 = 7x - 9
-7x. -7x
2x + 1 = -9
-1. -1
2x = -10
Divide by 2
x = -5
