Question

find x so that 3/5,x and 5/3x are the three consecutive terms of AP​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given: (3y−1),(3y+5) and (5y+1) are 3 consecutive terms of an AP.

So, difference between two consecutive terms will be same.

(3y+5)−(3y−1)=(5y+1)−(3y+5)

2(3y+5)=5y+1+3y−1

6y+10=8y

8y−6y=10

2y=10

or y=5

The value of y is 5.
