Answer:
9
Solution:

Given:

ck=ak+bk and a1=b1=4

Also,

a2=4r1 and a3=4r12

b2=4r2 and  b3=4r22

Now,

c2=a2+b2=5

4r1+4r2=5

r1+r2=54

And,

c3=a3+b3=134

r12+r22=1316

r1+r22-2r1r2=1316

2516-2r1r2=1316

2r1r2=1216

r1r2=38

8r154-r13

10r1-8r12=3

8r12-10r1+3=0

r1=10±100-9616

r1=34, 12

r2=12,34 

Now,

k=1ck-12a6+8b4

=c1+c2+c3+....+12×4×125+84×343

=a1+a2+a3+....+b1+b2+b3+....+32+272

=41-r1+41-r2-15

=24-15=9
