sum of 10th term and20th term of an AP . is 98 and Thier product is 2176. find first term and common difference of an AP
Answers
Answer:
Let a and d be the first term and common difference of AP
nth term of AP
a
n
=a+(n−1)d
∴a
3
=a+(3−1)d=a+2d
a
7
=a+(7−1)d=a+6d
Given a
3
+a
7
=6
∴(a+2d)+(a+6d)=6
⇒2a+8d=6
⇒a+4d=3....(1)
Also given
a

×a
7
=8
∴(a+2d)(a+6d)=8
⇒(3−4d+2d)(3−4d+6d)=8 [Using (1)]
⇒(3−2d)(3+2d)=8
⇒9−4d
