Consider number 17. You know that
17=9+8.
Then for negative numbers you have the same rule (with respect to sign -):
-17=(-9)+(-8).
Since (-9)+9=9+(-9)=9-9=0, you have that
-17+9=(-9)+(-8)+9=(-9+9)+(-8)=0+(-8)=-8.
Answer: -17=(-9)+(-8).

Step-by-step explanation:
You can look at it and see that 1/3 is added to each term. The common difference is 1/3. If you want to be be more formal,
d = d4 - d3
d = 0 - - 1/3
d = 0 + 1/3
d = 1/3
9x-20=7
9x=27
x=3
