9th term can be written as a +8d... where a is the first term and d the common difference...
and 3rd term = a +2d and so on
so given is
T9= 12.T2
T12 = 5.T3 + 2...
a+8d = 12a + 12d
11a= -4d
a = -4/11d ...

now from 2nd relation....
a + 11d = 5a + 10d + 2 ...

put the value of a and u'll get value of d... now go back and place that value of d ...and get the value of s

AvX6677: i mean D
