Let $\mathrm{A_1,A_2,A_3}$ be the three A.P. with the same common difference d and having their first terms as $\mathrm{A,A+1,A+2}$, respectively. Let a, b, c be the $\mathrm{7^{th},9^{th},17^{th}}$ terms of $\mathrm{A_1,A_2,A_3}$, respective such that $$\left| {\matrix{ a & 7 & 1 \cr {2b} & {17} & 1 \cr c & {17} & 1 \cr } } \right| + 70 = 0$$.

If $a=29$, then the sum of first 20 terms of an AP whose first term is $c-a-b$ and common difference is $\frac{d}{12}$, is equal to ___________.
