Answer:
☆ Given - A.p 3p - 1 , 3p + 5 and 5p + 1
☆ To find - Value of P
☆ Solution -
a = 3p - 1
d = a2 -a1
= (3p + 5) - (3p + 1 )
= 3p + 5 - 3p - 1
= 5 - 1
= 4
a3 = a4 + d
5p + 1 = 3p + 5 + 4
5p - 3p = 9 - 1
2p = 8
p = 8 /2
p = 4
Value of p is 4

Step-by-step explanation:
If the numbers a,b and c are in AP, then
b-a=c-b
⇒2b=a+c
The given three numbers (2p-1),(3p+1) and 11 are in AP.
Then,
2(3p+1)=(2p−1)+11
⇒6p+2=2p−1+11
⇒6p+2=2p+10
⇒6p−2p=10−2
⇒4p=8
⇒p=8/4
⇒p=2
So, the value of p is 2.
Then, the given numbers be
2×2−1,3×2+1,11
4−1,6+1,11
3,7,11
