Answer:-

Given:

Sum of first 30 terms of an AP – S(30) = 1920

Fourth term – a(4) = 18

We know that,

Sum of first n terms of an AP – S(n) = n/2 * [ 2a + (n - 1)d ]

Hence,

→ 1920 = 30/2 * [ 2a + (30 - 1)d ]

→ 1920 * 2/30 = 2a + 29d

→ 128 = 2a + 29d -- equation (1).

We know,

nth term of an AP – a(n) = a + (n - 1)d

Therefore,

→ 18 = a + (4 - 1)d

→ 18 = a + 3d -- equation (2)

Multiply equation (2) by 2 and subtract equation (2) from (1).

→ 128 - 2 (18) = 2a + 29d - 2 ( a + 3d )

→ 128 - 36 = 2a + 29d - 2a - 6d

→ 92 = 23d

→ 92/23 = d

→ 4 = d

Substitute the value of d in equation (1).

→ 2a + 29 * 4 = 128

→ 2a + 116 = 128

→ 2a = 128 - 116

→ 2a = 12

→ a = 12/2

→ a = 6

Therefore, the first term and common difference of the given AP are 6 , 4.
