let a and d are first term and common difference of an A.P.
nth term =tn = a+(n-1)d........(1)
i) given t 5 =19
a+4d= 19......(2)
ii) difference of the eighth term from the thirteenth term is 20
t 13- t 8 = 20
a+12d-(a+7d)=20
a+12d-a-7d=20
5d =20
d=20/5
d=4
put d=4 in (2)
a+4d=19
a+4×4=19
a+16=19
a=3
therefore a=3 and d=4
required A.P. is
a, a+d, a+2d, a+3d, ........
3, 7, 11, 15, .......
