Step-by-step explanation:
= - 4
= a* + (3- 1) d*
- 4 = a + 2d . . . . . . . . .(i)
= - 29
= a + ( 8 - 1) d
- 29 = a + 7d . . . . . . . . (ii)
subtracting equations (i) and (ii)
25 = 5d
d = -5
placing d = -5 in equation (i)
a - 10 = -4
a = 6
For an arithmetic Progtession
= a + (n - 1)d
= 6 + (n- 1)-5
= 6 - 5n + 5

Answer:
y= -2/3x-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have a point and a slope, we can use the point slope formula
m is the slope. In this case, m is -2/3
y1 is the y coordinate of the point. In this case, it is -2
x1 is the x coordinate. In this case it is 0.
We can substitute these values into the formula
y- -2= -2/3(x-0)
Distribute -2/3
y+2 = -2/3*x + -2/3*0
y+2= -2/3x+0
Subtract 2 from both sides. We want to get y by itself. This is because we want our line to be in y=mx+b form.
y+2-2= -2/3x+0-2
y= -2/3x -2
