let a - d , a , a + d are three terms of an AP
according to the problem given,
sum of the terms = 15
_______________________________________________
a - d + a + a + d = 15
3a = 15
a = 15 / 3
a = 5
▪︎ product = 80
_______________________________________________
( a - d ) a ( a + d ) = 80
( a² - d² ) a = 80
( 5² - d² ) 5 = 80
25 - d² = 80 /5
25 - d² = 16
- d² = - 9
d² = 3²
d = ± 3
Therefore,
a = 5 , d = ±3
☆ required 3 terms are
a - d = 5 - 3 = 2
a = 5
a+ d = 5 + 3 = 8
( 2 , 5 , 8 ) or ( 8 , 5 , 2 )
