sum of 9 terms = [2 a + 8 d] 9/2 = 162
a + 4 d = 18 --- (1)
T6/T13 = [a + 5d ] / [a + 12 d] = 1/2
a + 12 d = 2 a + 10 d
a = 2 d
From (1): 6d = 18 => d = 3
so a = 6
T1 = a = 6, T15 = a + 14 d = 48
a + 4 d = 18 --- (1)
T6/T13 = [a + 5d ] / [a + 12 d] = 1/2
a + 12 d = 2 a + 10 d
a = 2 d
From (1): 6d = 18 => d = 3
so a = 6
T1 = a = 6, T15 = a + 14 d = 48
