I not understand your question plzzz
The First term of Arithmetic Progression is - 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Given as :
For Arithmetic Progression
The sum of first 6 term of an A.P = 6
For A.P , Sum of n terms =
Or, = [ 2 a + ( n - 1 ) d ] where a is first term
d is common difference
or n = 6
= [ 2 a + ( 6 - 1 ) d ]
Or, 6 = 3 [ 2 a + 5 d ]
Or, 2 a + 5 d =
∴ 2 a + 5 d = 2 ............1
Again
product of 2nd term and 5th term = -8
Now,
nth term of an A.P = = a + (n - 1)d
For n = 2
= a + (2 - 1)d
i.e = a + d
And
For n = 5
= a + (5 - 1)d
i.e = a + 4 d
∵ × = - 8
So, (a + d) × (a + 4 d) = - 8 .....2
From eq 1 , 2 a + 5 d = 2
or, 2 a = 2 - 5 d
∴ a = 1 - 2.5 d
Put the value of a in eq 2
(1 - 2.5 d + d) × (1 - 2.5 d + 4 d) = - 80
Or, (1 - 1.5 d) × ( 1 + 1.5 d) = - 80
or, 1 - 2.25 d² = - 80
or, 2.25 d² = 81
∴ d =
d = 6
So, The value of d = 6
Put the value of d in to eq 1
2 a + 5 × 6 = 2
2 a + 30 = 2
Or, 2 a = - 28
Or, a = - 14
So, The First term of A.P = a = - 14
Hence, The First term of Arithmetic Progression is - 14 . Answer
