Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, D
Let the AP start with n and common differencem, then according to question,
`n+5d=32`
`n=32-5d " " "…..(i)"`
and `1072ltn+(n+d)+"……."+(n+19d)lt1162`
`1072lt20n+(19xx20)/(2)dlt1162`
`1072lt640-100d+190dlt1162`
`432lt90dlt522`
`4.8ltdlt5.8`
Let d is natutal number, so `d=5`
`:.n=32-5xx5=7`
First term is 7 and common difference is 5.
