Determine the mean
The mean of a data is calculated as thus:

In this case:

So, the formula becomes:



Here, A.P. is 3x-1, 4x, 5x+1, 4
i) Common difference (d)
(5x-1) - 4x = x - 1
It would be same as 4 - (5x-1) = 4-5x+1 = 5-5x
Now, x - 1 = 5 - 5x
5x + x = 5 + 1
6x = 6
x = 6/6
x = 1
So, Common difference would be 1
ii) Eight term will be: a + (n-1)d = 2 + (8-1)2 = 2+7(2) = 2+14 = 16
So, eight term would be 16
Hope this helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Slope (m) = -5
Point
(x1 , y1) = ( 6 , 3)
So the equation is
y - y1 = m ( x - x1)
y - 3 = -5 ( x - 6)
y - 3 = -5x +30
5x + y = 30 + 3
5x + y = 33
5x + y - 33= 0
Which is the required equation.
Hope it will help you :)
