Answer: d = 2 and a = 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
There is an AP, The 4th term is three times the first. So the relation is
3a = a + 3d, or
2a = 3d, or
a = (3/2)d …(1)
The 7th term exceeds twice the third term by 1. The relation is
a+6d = 2(a+2d)+1, or
a + 6d = 2a+4d+1, or
2a-a = 6d-4d-1, or
a = 2d-1 …(2).
Equate (1) and (2)
a = (3/2)d = 2d-1, or
3d = 4d-2, or
4d-3d=2, or d = 2 and a = 3.
The first term is 3 and the common difference is 3.
