Two sequences cannot be in both AP and GP together .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

False
considered an `AP . A,a+d,A+2d ***`
Now ` (a_(2))/(a_(1))=(a+d)/(a) ne (a+2d)/(a+d)`
thus AP is not a GP.

  • There are (4n + 1) terms in a certain sequence of which the first (2n + 1) terms form an A.P. of common difference 2 and the last (2n + 1) terms are in G.P. of common ratio 1/2. If the middle terms of both A.P. and G.P. be the same, the mid-term of this sequence is
