Given that a_1=24 and a_2=17, if a_n is an arithmetic sequence, then the common difference between successive terms is d=a_2-a_1=17-24=-7.

You then have

a_2=a_1+d
\implies a_3=a_2+d=a_1+2d
\implies a_4=a_3+d=a_1+3d
\implies \cdots\implies a_n=a_{n-1}+d=\cdots=a_1+(n-1)d

So the explicit formula for the nth term is

a_n=24-7(n-1)

              x = 4

y = (-3/4)4 + 9
