\\

➡ Given :

\\

  • 9th Term of the A.P. = 19
  • 4th Term + 7th Term = 24

\\

➡ To Find :

\\

  • The Arithmetic Progression (AP).

\\

➡ SOLUTION :

\\

We know that the \sf n^{th} term of an AP is GENERALISED as -

\leadsto \:  \boxed{ \sf  a _{n} =a + (n - 1)d }

Here,

  • a = FIRST term of the AP
  • d = common difference
  • n = no. of terms
  • an = n th term

\\

\textit{\textbf{\dag\:According\:to\:the\:Question:}}

\\

\colon \longrightarrow \sf \: 9 {}^{th}  \: term = 19   \\  \\

\colon \longrightarrow \sf \: a + 8d = 19 \\  \\

\colon \longrightarrow \:  \boxed{ \sf{a = 19 - 8d}}  \sf \: ...(i) \\  \\

And..

\\

\colon \longrightarrow \sf \: 4 {}^{th}  \: term +  {7}^{th}  \: term = 24 \\  \\

\colon \longrightarrow \sf \: a + 3d + a + 6d = 24 \\  \\

\colon \longrightarrow \sf \: 2a + 9d = 24 \\  \\

  • From eq(i) , a = 19 - 8d

\\

\colon \longrightarrow \sf \: 2(19 - 8d) + 9d = 24 \\  \\

\colon \longrightarrow \sf \: 38 - 16d + 9d = 24 \\  \\

\colon \longrightarrow \sf \:  - 7d = 24 - 38 \\  \\

\colon \longrightarrow \sf \:  \cancel{ - 7d }=  \cancel{ - 14} \\  \\

\colon \implies \underline{ \boxed{ \bf{  \red{d = 2}}}} \:  \bigstar

\\

  • Put it in eq(i)

\\  \colon \longrightarrow \sf \: a = 19 - 8 \times 2  \\  \\

\colon \implies \:  \underline{ \boxed{ \bf{ \purple{a = 3}}}} \:  \bigstar

\\

\underline{\dag\:\bf Arithmetic \:Progression :-}

\\

» Arithmetic Progression is in the form :

✒ a , a + d , a + 2d , a + 3d ,...

\\

» For this question,

  • a = 3
  • d = 2

So,

Required Arithmetic Progression would be :

\\

\sf{ 3,3+2, 3+2\times2, 3+3\times2,...}

\\

\therefore\underline{\sf A. P. = \pink{3, 5,7,9,...}}

\\
