Five NUMBER in ARITHMETIC progression WHOSE sum is 25 and the sum of whose square is 135.

\bf{\red{\underline{\underline{\bf{To\:find\::}}}}}

The number.

\bf{\red{\underline{\underline{\bf{Explanation\::}}}}}

Let the numbers be a-2d, a-d, a, a+d, a+2d

A/q

\mapsto\sf{a-2d+a-d+a+a+d+a+2d=25}\\\\\mapsto\sf{5a \cancel{-3d+3d}=25}\\\\\mapsto\sf{5a=25}\\\\\mapsto\sf{a=\cancel{\dfrac{25}{5} }}\\\\\mapsto\sf{\pink{a=5}}

So;

Putting the value of (a) in this number :

\mapsto\sf{(a-2d)^{2} +(a-d)^{2} +a^{2} +(a+d)^{2} +(a+2d)^{2} =135}\\\\\mapsto\sf{a^{2} +4d^{2} \cancel{-4ad}+a^{2} +d^{2} \cancel{-2ad}+a^{2} +a^{2} +d^{2} \cancel{+2ad}+a^{2} +4d^{2} \cancel{+4ad}=135}\\\\\mapsto\sf{5a^{2} +10d^{2} =135}\\\\\mapsto\sf{5(5)^{2} +10d^{2}=135}\\ \\\mapsto\sf{5\times 25+10d^{2} =135}\\\\\mapsto\sf{125+10d^{2} =135}\\\\\mapsto\sf{10d^{2} =135-125}\\\\\mapsto\sf{10d^{2} =10}\\\\\mapsto\sf{d^{2} =\cancel{\dfrac{10}{10} }}\\\\\mapsto\sf{d^{2} =1}\\\\

\mapsto\sf{\pink{d=\pm1}}

Now;

Putting the value of d = 1

  • a-2d = 5 - 2(1) = 5 - 2 = 3
  • a-d = 5 - 1 = 4
  • a = 5
  • a+d = 5 + 1 = 6
  • a + 2d = 5 + 2(1) = 5+2 = 7

Putting the value of d = -1

  • a - 2d = 5 - 2(-1) = 5 + 2 = 7
  • a - d = 5 - (-1) = 5 + 1 = 6
  • a = 5
  • a + d = 5 + (-1) = 5 - 1 = 4
  • a + 2d = 5 + 2(-1) = 5 - 2 = 3
