a2 + a7 = 30 [given]
a15 = 2 x a8 - 1 [ given }
a + 14d = 2 x { a + 7d } -1 [an = a +{n-1}d]
a +14d = 2a + 14 d -1
a - 2a = 14d - 14d -1
-a = -1
a = 1
putting value in the first equation
a2 + a7 = 30
a + 1d+ a + 6d = 30
2a + 7d= 30
2+ 7d=30 [ a=1 we found out above]
7d = 28
d=4
there for ap =
a= 1
a2= a + 1d = 5
a3= a + 2d = 9
...
AP = 1,5,9,13,17,21,25,29...
