प्रश्न

The 4th term of a G.P. is 16 and the 7th term is 128. Find the first term and common ratio of the series

उत्तर

The 4th term of a G.P. = 16

`=> ar^(4-1) = 16`

7th term of G.P.  = 128

`=> ar^(7-1) = 128`

so, `(ar^3)/(ar^6) = 16/128`

`=> 1/r^3 = 1/8`

=> r = 2

`ar^3 = 16`

`a xx 2^3 = 16`

a x 8 = 16

a = 2
