The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the sequences given in the question. ### Step 1: Define the sequences Let \( a_n \) be the \( n \)-th term of the arithmetic progression (AP) and \( q_n \) be the \( n \)-th term of the geometric progression (GP). For the AP: - The first term \( a_1 = a = 2 \) - The common difference \( d \) can be found using the 10th term: \[ a_{10} = a + 9d = 3 \] For the GP: - The first term \( q_1 = a = 2 \) - The common ratio \( r \) can be found using the 10th term: \[ q_{10} = ar^9 = 3 \] ### Step 2: Find the common difference \( d \) From the equation for the AP: \[ 2 + 9d = 3 \] Subtracting 2 from both sides: \[ 9d = 1 \] Dividing by 9: \[ d = \frac{1}{9} \] ### Step 3: Find the common ratio \( r \) From the equation for the GP: \[ 2r^9 = 3 \] Dividing both sides by 2: \[ r^9 = \frac{3}{2} \] Taking the 9th root: \[ r = \left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^{\frac{1}{9}} \] ### Step 4: Calculate \( a_7 \) and \( q_{19} \) Now we can find \( a_7 \): \[ a_7 = a + 6d = 2 + 6 \cdot \frac{1}{9} = 2 + \frac{6}{9} = 2 + \frac{2}{3} = \frac{6}{3} + \frac{2}{3} = \frac{8}{3} \] Next, we calculate \( q_{19} \): \[ q_{19} = ar^{18} = 2 \left(\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^{\frac{1}{9}}\right)^{18} = 2 \left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^{2} = 2 \cdot \frac{9}{4} = \frac{18}{4} = \frac{9}{2} \] ### Step 5: Calculate \( a_7 \cdot q_{19} \) Now we multiply \( a_7 \) and \( q_{19} \): \[ a_7 \cdot q_{19} = \frac{8}{3} \cdot \frac{9}{2} = \frac{8 \cdot 9}{3 \cdot 2} = \frac{72}{6} = 12 \] Since 12 is an integer, the statement in option A is incorrect. ### Step 6: Calculate \( a_{19} \) and \( q_7 \) Next, we find \( a_{19} \): \[ a_{19} = a + 18d = 2 + 18 \cdot \frac{1}{9} = 2 + 2 = 4 \] Now, we calculate \( q_7 \): \[ q_7 = ar^6 = 2 \left(\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^{\frac{1}{9}}\right)^{6} = 2 \left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^{\frac{2}{3}} = 2 \cdot \frac{3^{2/3}}{2^{2/3}} = 2^{1 - \frac{2}{3}} \cdot 3^{2/3} = 2^{\frac{1}{3}} \cdot 3^{\frac{2}{3}} = \frac{2^{1/3} \cdot 9^{1/3}}{2^{2/3}} = \frac{9^{1/3}}{2^{1/3}} \] ### Step 7: Check if \( a_{19} \cdot q_7 \) is an integer Now we check \( a_{19} \cdot q_7 \): \[ a_{19} \cdot q_7 = 4 \cdot \frac{9^{1/3}}{2^{1/3}} = 4 \cdot \frac{3^{2/3}}{2^{1/3}} = \frac{4 \cdot 9^{1/3}}{2^{1/3}} = \frac{4 \cdot 3^{2/3}}{2^{1/3}} = \frac{12^{1/3}}{2^{1/3}} = \text{not an integer} \] ### Conclusion After checking the options, we find that: - Option A is incorrect (as \( a_7 \cdot q_{19} = 12 \), which is an integer). - Option B is incorrect (as \( a_{19} \cdot q_7 \) is not an integer). - Option C is correct (as \( a_7 \cdot q_{19} = a_{19} \cdot q_7 = 12 \)).

To solve the problem, we need to analyze the sequences given in the question. ### Step 1: Define the sequences Let \( a_n \) be the \( n \)-th term of the arithmetic progression (AP) and \( q_n \) be the \( n \)-th term of the geometric progression (GP). For the AP: - The first term \( a_1 = a = 2 \) - The common difference \( d \) can be found using the 10th term: ...
