Answer:
k = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 2k - 7, k + 5 and 3k + 2 are three consecutive terms of an AP,
( 3k + 2 ) - ( k + 5 ) = ( k + 5 ) - ( 2k - 7 )
The reason for doing this is that both the LHS and RHS are equal to the common difference of the AP.
Thus,
3k + 2 - k - 5 = k + 5 - 2k + 7
2k - 3 = - k + 12
3k = 15
k = 5
