उत्तर
Let a be the first term and d be the common difference of the AP. Then,
`a_19 = 3a_6` (Given)
⇒ a + 18d = 3 (a+ 5d) [ an = a + (n-1) d]
⇒ a + 18d = 3a + 15d
⇒ 3a - a = 18d - 15d
⇒ 2a = 3d ................(1)
Also,
a9 = 19 (Given)
⇒ a +8d = 19 ..............(2)
From (1) and (2), we get
`(3d)/2 + 8d = 19`
`⇒ (3d +16d)/2 = 19`
⇒ 19d =38
⇒ d =2
Putting d = 2 in (1), we get
2a = 3 × 2=6
⇒ a = 3
So,
a2 = a + d = 3+2 = 5
a3 = a +2d = 3+2 × 2=7
Hence, the AP is 3,5,7,9,........

In a school, students thought of planting trees in and around the school to reduce air pollution. It was decided that the number of trees, that each section of each class will plant will be the same as the class, in which they are studying, e.g., a section of class I will plant 1 tree, a section of class II will plant 2 trees, and so on till class XII.
