Options

B. q lies between p and `((n+1)/(n-1))p`
C. q does not lie between p and `((n+1)/(n-1))^(2)p`
D. q does not lie between p and `((n+1)/(n-1))p`

Answer

C

Explanation

For `ngt1`, we have `n+1gtn-1`
`implies (n+1)/(n-1)gt1 implies p((n+1)/(n-1))^(2)gtp" " [:.pgt0]".......(i)"`
Now, `p=a+d`
Since,a,p,b are in AP.
And `d=(b-a)/(n+1)`
Again, ` (p)/(q)=((an+b)/(n+1))xx[(a+bn)/(ab(n+1))]`
` =(a^(2)n+abn^(2)+b^(2)n+ab)/(ab(n+1)^(2))`
` =(n((a)/(b)+(b)/(a))+(n^(2)+1))/((n+1)^(2))`
`implies (p)/(q)-1=(n((a)/(b)+(b)/(a)-2))/((n+1)^(2))=(n(sqrt(a)/sqrt(b)+sqrt(b)/sqrt(a))^(2))/((n+1)^(2))`
So, `(p)/(q)-1gt0 implies (p)/(q)gt1 implies pgtq" " "........(iii)"`
From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get
`qltplt((n+1)/(n-1))^(2)p`.
