    a = - 32

    tn9 = - 120

    L = a + (n - 1) * d

    -120 = - 32 + (9 - 1) * d Add 32 to both sides.

    -88 = 8*d Divide by 8

    -11 = d

    a_32 = - 32 + (32 - 1) * -11

    a_32 = - 32 + 31*-11

    a_32 = - 373

    (-120 - (-32)) / (9 - 1) = - 11

    a (n) = - 32 - 11 * (n - 1)

    a (32) = - 32 - 11 * (32 - 1) = - 373
