Given,
am+1 = 2an+1
{tex}\Rightarrow{/tex} a + (m + 1 - 1)d = 2[a + (n + 1 - 1)d]
{tex}\Rightarrow{/tex} a + md = 2[a + nd]
{tex}\Rightarrow{/tex} a + md = 2a + 2nd
{tex}\Rightarrow{/tex} md - 2nd = 2a - a
{tex}\Rightarrow{/tex} md - 2nd = a ..........(i)
To prove:
a3m+1 = 2am+n+1
Proof:
LHS
= a3m+1
= a + (3m + 1 - 1)d
= a + 3md
= md - 2nd + 3md [From (i)]
= 4md - 2nd
RHS
= 2am+n+1
= 2[a + (m + n + 1 -1)d]
= 2[a + md - nd]
= 2[md - 2nd + md + nd] [From (i)]
= 2[2md - nd]
= 4md - 2nd
Hence, LHS = RHS
