Answer:
31, 36,41,46,...
step by step explanation:
given,
t₅ + t₉ = 72 ---------(1)
t₇ + t₁₂ = 97-----------(2)
we have n'th term = a + (n-1)d
(1) => a+4d + a+8d = 72
=> 2a+12d = 72 ------------ (3)
(2) => a+6d + a+11d = 97
=>2a+17d = 97 ------------ (4)
(3)-(4) => 2a+12d-2a-17d = 72-97
-5d = -25
=> d = 25/5
=> d = 5
substitute d=5 in (1) , we get
2a+2d = 72
=> 2a + 2(5) = 72
=> 2a = 72-10
=> 2a = 62
=> a = 62/2 = 31
so, A.P is
=> 31, 31+5 , 31+2(5) , 31+3(5),..
=> 31, 36 , 31+10 , 31+15,...
=> 31, 36,41,46,..
