प्रश्न

Check whether the following sequence is G.P. If so, write tn.

1, –5, 25, –125 …

बेरीज

उत्तर

Here, t1 = 1, t2 = –5, t3 = 25, t4 = –125, ...

∴ `"t"_2/"t"_1 = (-5)/1` = – 5, `"t"_3/"t"_2 = 25/(-5)` = – 5, `"t"_4/"t"_3 = (-125)/25` = – 5

Since the ratio of any two consecutive terms is a constant, the given sequence is a GP.

Here, a = 1, r = – 5

∴ tn = arn–1 = 1(– 5)n–1

= (– 5)n–1
