well, if the expression is simply 12-2, then you would do simple subtraction and your answer would be 10. that would be simplest form. you cannot take it any simpler because there is nothing else left now. your answer would be 10.
<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>
- First term = 6
- Common difference= 4
<h3><u>Solution</u><u>:</u></h3>
Let's take the first term as <u>a</u> and the common difference be <u>d</u>
The formula to find the nth term of an arithmetic progression is given by :
<u>According to question, we have :</u>
- 16th term of an AP is three times the 5th term.
➝ a16 = 3 ( a5 )
➝ a + ( 16 - 1 )d = 3 ( a + ( 5 - 1 )d )
➝ a + 15d = 3 ( a + 4d )
➝ a + 15d = 3a + 12d
➝ 15d - 12d = 3a - a
➝ 3d = 2a
➝ 2a = 3d
➝ <u>a = 3d/2</u><u></u>ㅤㅤㅤ⸻ ( 1 )
- And, the 12th term is 20 more the 7th term.
➝ a12 - ( a7 ) = 20
➝ a + ( n - 1 )d -( a + ( n - 1 )d ) = 20
➝ a + ( 12 - 1 )d - + a + ( 7 - 1 )d ) = 20
➝ a + 11d - ( a + 6d ) = 20
➝ a - a + 11d - 6d = 20
➝ 5d = 20
➝ d = 20/ 5
➝<u> d = 4</u>
- <u>Using</u><u> equation</u><u> (</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u> </u><u>)</u>
➝ a = 3d / 2
➝ a = ( 3 × 4 ) / 2
➝ a = 12 / 2
➝<u> a = 6</u>
