~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


            The term "application" is incorrect and inappropriate in this context.

            The correct formulation is THIS :

    the sum of the 1st and 2nd term of an ARITHMETIC PROGRESSION is 4 and 10th term is 19.  Find the fifth and sixth term 


Solution

Arithmetic progression with the first term 1 and the common difference 2.


a%5B5%5D = 1 + 4*2 = 9;     ANSWER


a%5B6%5D = 1 + 5*2 = 11.    ANSWER

It was, probably, written "AP" in the text, from which you copied / printed your post, and you mistakenly interpret it as "APPLICATION".

But it was, actually, standard abbreviation for "arithmetic progression", instead - - - for your info.
