GIVEN,,,,,,
S5= 35
S9 = 99
So,,,,,after solving formula ,we get------
35 = 5/2(2a + (5-1)d)
70 = 5(2a + 4d)
14 = 2(a + 2d )
7 =a + 2d
a = 7-2d________ eq. (1)
99 = 9/2(2a + (9-1)d)
198 = 9(2a + 8d)
22= 2(a + 4d)
11 = a + 4d
11 = 7 - 2d + 4d
2d = 4
d = 2.
So,,,, a = 7-2(2)
a = 7-4 = 3
a) a3 = a+2d = 3+2(2) = 3+4 = 7..
b) common difference = 2..
c) A.P. = 3,5,7,9,11,13,.............
