If 2lambda,lambda and [lambda^(2)-14],la...

If `2lambda,lambda` and `[lambda^(2)-14],lambda in R-{0}` and `[*]` denotes the gratest integer function are the first three terms of a GP in order, then the 51th term of the sequence, `1,3lambda,6lambda,10lambda,"….",` is

A

5104

B

5304

C

5504

D

5704

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`:.2lambda,lambda,[lambda^(2)-14]` are oin GP, then
`lambda ^(2)=2lambda[lambda^(2)-14]`
`implies (lambda)/(2)=[lambda^(2)-14]`
`:.lambda ` must be an evenm integer
Hence, `lambda=4`
Now, reqyured sequence `1,12,24,40,"….."`
or `1,4(1+2),4(1+2+3),4(1+2+3+4),"...."`
`:. 51th " term "=4(1+2+3+"...."+51)`
`=4*(51)/(2)(1+51)=4*51*26=5304`
