  Given:
  
  $a=-5, d=-3$
  
  To do:
  
  We have to write the first three terms of the given arithmetic progression.
  
  Solution:
  
  First term $a_1=a=-5$
  
  Second term $a_2=a_1+d=-5+(-3)=-5-3=-8$
  
  Third term $a_3=a_2+d=-8+(-3)=-8-3=-11$
  
  Therefore, the first three terms of the given AP are $-5, -8, -11$.
