Consider the series \( b_{1}, b_{2}, b_{3}, ..., b_{p-1}, b_{p} \) where p is a positive integer. How many terms are there in this sequence?
(1) The arithmetic mean of the p terms in this series is 7.
(2) The total of all the terms in the series \( b_{1}, b_{2}, b_{3}, ..., b_{p-1}, b_{p} \)is given by \(p(p + 1)\).
