Step-by-step explanation:
6th element= a+5d
14th element= a+13d
Sum is given as -76
So, a+5d+a+13d=-76
2a+18d= 76
a+9d=38.........(i)
Given that the sum of 8th and 16th term is -96
8th term = a+7d
16th term = a+15d
Sum =-96
a+7d+a+15d=-96
2a+22d= -96
a+11d= -48.......(ii)
comparing equation (i) and (ii)
We have,
a=425
d= -43
So the 35th term will be,
a(n) = a+(n-1)d
a(35)=425+(35-1)*-43
a(35)= -1037
Therefore the 35th term is -1037

Let the first term of AP be a and difference be d
Then third term will be =a+2d
