Answer:
The value of p is 4
Step-by-step explanation:
As these are in A. P. the common difference between them must be same
we know that d = a2-a1, a3-a2,......and so on
So, p+3-(p-1) =3p-1-(p+3)
p+3-p+1 = 3p-1-p-3
4 = 2p-4
4+4=2p
8=2p
p=8/2
p=4

a=p-1
b=p+3
c=3p-1
if a,b,c are in AP then b=a+c/2
p+3=p-1+3p-1/2
p+3=4p-2/2
2p+6=4p-2
2p=8
p=8/2
p=4
