The 10th term of an arithmetic progress in 28 and the 7th term is 19.calculate the 1st,2nd and 3rd terms of the progression

1 answer

3 differences (7 to 10) is 9

so d = 9 / 3 = 3

the 7th term is 6 differences from the 1st term
...1st + (3 * 6) = 7th
...1st + 18 = 19

so the 1st three terms are
...1, 4, 7
