Introduction
Banach provided a method to find the fixed point in the entire metric space in 1922. Since then, numerous researchers have attempted to generalise this idea by working on the Banach fixed point theorem (see [1-9], [11-22],[26,27]). The term " admissible mappings in metric space" pertains to the innovative concepts in mappings that Samet, et al. [27] pioneered in 2012. Recently, in 2013 Farhan, et al. [2] gave new contractions using
-admissible mapping in metric spaces. In continuation of generalization of Banach contraction principle, in 2018, Karapinar introduced the notion of interpolative contraction via revisiting Kannan contraction which involves exponential factors. Combining the interpolative contractions with linear and rational terms several authors defined hybrid contractions and proved fixed point theorems for these contractions see(16,24-25). We'll generalize Farhan's, et al. [2] contractions in the following paper and provide fixed point theorems for them.
Preliminaries

Main Results
Theorem 3.1: Let

So, we suppose that

Since T is α-admissible, there exists

Similarly, we can say that

By continuing this process, we get
By using equation (3.2), we have
Now using equation (3.1), we get

Using this in equation (3.3), we get

It follows that the sequence

Equation (3.4) implies that
Which implies that

Using the property of the function β, we conclude that d = 0, that is
In the similar way, we can prove that
Now, we will show that

By the triangle inequality, we have

Taking the limit as

Again, by triangle inequality, we have
Taking the limit as

From equations (3.1), (3.2), (3.6) and (3.8), we get
Taking

So, equation (9) implies that
Letting

By using definition of β function, we get

Hence,

Since

Since T is continuous, then we have
So,
