Answer:
The terms of AP are 12 , 18 , 24 , 30 , 36
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the terms of AP be a - 2d , a - d , a , a + d , a + 2d
(a₁) (a₂) (a₃) (a₄) (a₅)
S₅ = a - 2d + a - d + a + a + d + a + 2d = 120
⇒ 5a = 120
⇒ a = 24 -----> (1)
Also , a₅ = a₁ + a₂ + 6
⇒ a + 2d = a - 2d + a - d + 6
⇒ 24 + 2d = 2a - 3d + 6 (from (1) )
⇒ 24 + 2d = 48 - 3d + 6
⇒ 24 + 2d = 54 - 3d
⇒ 3d + 2d = 54 - 24
⇒ 5d = 30
⇒ d = 6
a₁ = a - 2d = 24 - 12 = 12
a₂ = a - d = 24 - 6 = 18
a₃ = a = 24
a₄ = a + d = 24 + 6 = 30
a₅ = a + 2d = 24 + 12 = 36
∴ The AP is 12 , 18 , 24 , 30 , 36 .
