First, let's write the given equation in slope-intercept form: y = mx + b
In slope-intercept form, the slope of the line is m, and the y-intercept is b. The slope is a measure of how steep the graph is at any point and is found by doing rise over run. This means the change in y values divided by the change in x values. Next, y-intercept is just where the graph crosses the y axis.
All we need to do to get the equation in slope-intercept form is to divide each term by 3. This will isolate the y.

As you can see, the slope of the line is 2/3, and the y-intercept is -2.
To graph the line, plot a point at (0,-2). This is the point where the graph crosses the y axis. Then from that point, count up two and right 3. Plot a point here as well. Lastly, connect the two points with a straight line.
See attached picture for the graph.
I can’t the picture can you post a other one
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given


Required
The explicit formula
First, calculate 
Set n=2; So:


Substitute -25 for 


Calculate the common difference (d)



So, the nth term is:


Open bracket

Collect like terms


A geometric sequence is a sequence in which there is a common ratio between any two consecutive terms. In this case if X:Y:Z are in the ratio of 2:7:8 the multiplying by a constant k, we have X=2k, Y= 7k and Z=8k.
Then if X, Y-12, Z form a Geometric sequence, it means X/Y-12=Y-12/Z which is the same as 2k/7k-12=7k-12/8k if we cross multply, we get
16k²= 49k²-168k +144
33k²-168k+144 =0 solving for k
k = 4 or 1.091 if we take the whole number to find the values of X,Y and z,
X= 8, Y= 28 and Z=32
