Let a be first term and d be common difference
9 th term = a+ 8 d
second term = a + d
As given
a + 8d = 7 ( a + d)
a + 8 d = 7a + 7d
- 6a = -d
6a = d
Now
12 th term = a + 11 d
third term = a + 2d
As given
a + 11 d= 5( a + 2d) + 2
a + 11 d = 5a + 10 d + 2
- 4a + d = 2
put 6 a = d
- 4a + 6 a = 2
2a = 2
a= 1
As 6a = d
d = 6
So first term = 1
common difference= 6

A9=7*a2
a12=5a3+2
That means,
a9=(a+d)7
a12=5(a+2d)+2
That means,
a+8d=7a+7d, d=6a
a+11d=5a+10d+2,
d=4a+2,
2a=2,
a=1//
d=6a=6//
So first term is 1 & common difference is 6.
