Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

The general formula for an arithmetic progression is a(n) = a(0) + d(n - 1), where a(0) is the first term,n is the index (counter), and d is the common difference between terms.

Here we have a(n) = -28 + (1/3)(n - 1)

and the 139th term is    a(139) = -28 + (1/3)(138)  =  -28 + 46 = 18
