The eighth term of an AP is half

Question: The eighth term of an AP is half its second term and the eleventh term exceeds one-third of its fourth term by 1. Find the 15th term. Solution: Let a and d be the first term and common difference of an AP respectively. Now, by given condition, $a_{8}=\frac{1}{2} a_{2}$ $\Rightarrow$$a+7 d=\frac{1}{2}(a+d)$$\left[\because a_{n}=a+(n-1) d\right]$ $\Rightarrow$ $2 a+14 d=a+d$ $\Rightarrow$ $a+13 d=0$ $\ldots($ i) and $a_{11}=\frac{1}{3} a_{4}+1$ $\Rightarrow$ $a+10 d=\frac{1}{3}[a+3 d]+1$...
