\green{\underline \bold{<klux>GIVEN</klux> :}} \\  \tt:  \implies Number \: of \: terms = 21 \\  \\  \tt:  \implies Sum \: of \: first \: 3 \: terms =  - 33 \\  \\  \tt:  \implies Sum \: of \: next \: three = 75 \\  \\ \red{\underline \bold{To \: Find :}} \\  \tt:  \implies Sum \:of \: A.P = ?

ACCORDING to given QUESTION :

\bold{For \: sum \: of \: first \: three \: term} \\   \tt:  \implies  s_{3} =  \frac{3}{2}(2a + (3 - 1) \times d) \\  \\   \tt:  \implies  - 33 =  \frac{3}{2} (2a + 2d) \\  \\ \tt:  \implies  - 33 = 3(a + d) \\  \\ \tt:  \implies a + d =  - 11 -  -  -  -   - (1) \\  \\  \bold{For \: next \: three \: sum \: of \: terms} \\ \tt:  \implies 75 =  \frac{3}{2} (2(a + 3d) + (3 - 1)d) \\  \\ \tt:  \implies  \frac{150}{3}  = 2a + 6d + 2d \\  \\ \tt:  \implies 50 = 2a + 8d \\  \\ \tt:  \implies a + 4d = 25 -  -  -  -  - (2) \\  \\  \text{Subtracting \: (1) \: from \: (2)} \\ \tt:  \implies 4d - d = 25 - ( - 11)

\tt:  \implies 3d = 36 \\  \\ \tt:  \implies d =  \frac{36}{3}  \\  \\  \green{\tt:  \implies d = 12} \\  \\  \text{Putting \: value \: of \: d \: in \: (2)} \\ \tt:  \implies a + 4 \times 12 = 25 \\  \\ \tt:  \implies a + 48 = 25 \\  \\ \tt:  \implies a = 25 - 48 \\  \\  \green{\tt:  \implies a =  - 23} \\  \\  \bold{As \: we \: know \: that} \\  \tt:  \implies  s_{n} =  \frac{n}{2} (2a + (n - 1)d) \\  \\ \tt:  \implies  s_{21} =  \frac{21}{2} (2 \times  - 23 + (21 - 1) \times 12) \\  \\ \tt:  \implies  s_{21} = \frac{21}{2} ( - 46 + 240) \\  \\ \tt:  \implies  s_{21} = \frac{21}{2}  \times 194 \\  \\  \green{\tt:  \implies  s_{21} =2037 }
