The sum of the ten terms of an A. P. is 50 and its fifth term is treble the second term. Calculate the first term and the sum of first twenty terms.

if y=4x then you will substitute 4x in for y in the second equation.

8x + 4x = 18 combine like terms

12x = 18 divide by 12 on both sides

x = 18/12 or 3/2

now replace x in the first equation with 3/2 to get

y = 4 3/2

y = 6

the answer is a

(3/2,6)

hope that .
