Question

The sum of three number in A.P. is 3 and their product is -35. find the number

Answer 1

5,1,7 this is the answer or this question is wrongggg

Answer 2

Answer:

The nos. are -5,1,7

Explanation:

Let the nos. be

(a-d),a,(a+d)

Sum=(a-d)+a+(a+d)=3

=>3a=3

a=1

product=(a-d)(a)(a+d)=-35

(a^2-ad)(a+d)=-35

a^3+a^2d-a^2d-ad^2=-35

a^3-ad^2=-35

Substituting a=1

1^3-1(d^2)=-35

-d^2=-35-1

-d^2=-36

d=6

Therefore, nos. are

(a-d)=1-6=-5

a=1

(a+d)=1+6=7
