The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the minimum value of the expression \( A_4 B_1 + A_3 B_2 + 2 A_1 B_3 \), where \( A_n \) is an arithmetic sequence and \( B_n \) is a geometric sequence. ### Step 1: Define the sequences 1. The first term of the arithmetic sequence \( A_n \) is given as \( A_1 = 1 \). 2. Let the common difference of the arithmetic sequence be \( D \). Thus, the terms can be expressed as: - \( A_1 = 1 \) - \( A_2 = 1 + D \) - \( A_3 = 1 + 2D \) - \( A_4 = 1 + 3D \) 3. The first term of the geometric sequence \( B_n \) is given as \( B_1 = 2 \). 4. Let the common ratio of the geometric sequence be \( r \). Thus, the terms can be expressed as: - \( B_1 = 2 \) - \( B_2 = 2r \) - \( B_3 = 2r^2 \) ### Step 2: Establish the relationship between \( r \) and \( D \) According to the problem, the common ratio \( r \) of the geometric sequence is half the common difference \( D \) of the arithmetic sequence: \[ r = \frac{D}{2} \] ### Step 3: Substitute the terms into the expression Now, we substitute the terms into the expression \( A_4 B_1 + A_3 B_2 + 2 A_1 B_3 \): \[ A_4 B_1 = (1 + 3D)(2) = 2 + 6D \] \[ A_3 B_2 = (1 + 2D)(2r) = (1 + 2D)(2 \cdot \frac{D}{2}) = (1 + 2D)D = D + 2D^2 \] \[ 2 A_1 B_3 = 2(1)(2r^2) = 4r^2 = 4 \left(\frac{D}{2}\right)^2 = \frac{D^2}{4} \] ### Step 4: Combine the terms Now, we combine all these terms: \[ A = 2 + 6D + D + 2D^2 + \frac{D^2}{4} \] Combining like terms gives: \[ A = 2 + 7D + 2D^2 + \frac{D^2}{4} \] To combine \( 2D^2 + \frac{D^2}{4} \), we convert \( 2D^2 \) to have a common denominator: \[ 2D^2 = \frac{8D^2}{4} \] Thus, \[ A = 2 + 7D + \frac{8D^2 + D^2}{4} = 2 + 7D + \frac{9D^2}{4} \] ### Step 5: Find the minimum value of \( A \) To find the minimum value, we can differentiate \( A \) with respect to \( D \): \[ \frac{dA}{dD} = 7 + \frac{9D}{2} \] Setting the derivative to zero to find critical points: \[ 7 + \frac{9D}{2} = 0 \implies \frac{9D}{2} = -7 \implies D = -\frac{14}{9} \] ### Step 6: Substitute \( D \) back into \( A \) Now substitute \( D = -\frac{14}{9} \) back into the expression for \( A \): \[ A = 2 + 7\left(-\frac{14}{9}\right) + \frac{9\left(-\frac{14}{9}\right)^2}{4} \] Calculating each term: 1. \( 7\left(-\frac{14}{9}\right) = -\frac{98}{9} \) 2. \( \left(-\frac{14}{9}\right)^2 = \frac{196}{81} \) 3. Thus, \( \frac{9 \cdot \frac{196}{81}}{4} = \frac{196}{36} = \frac{49}{9} \) Combining these: \[ A = 2 - \frac{98}{9} + \frac{49}{9} = 2 - \frac{49}{9} = \frac{18}{9} - \frac{49}{9} = -\frac{31}{9} \] ### Final Answer The minimum value of \( A_4 B_1 + A_3 B_2 + 2 A_1 B_3 \) is: \[ \boxed{-\frac{31}{9}} \]

To solve the problem, we need to find the minimum value of the expression \( A_4 B_1 + A_3 B_2 + 2 A_1 B_3 \), where \( A_n \) is an arithmetic sequence and \( B_n \) is a geometric sequence. ### Step 1: Define the sequences 1. The first term of the arithmetic sequence \( A_n \) is given as \( A_1 = 1 \). 2. Let the common difference of the arithmetic sequence be \( D \). Thus, the terms can be expressed as: - \( A_1 = 1 \) - \( A_2 = 1 + D \) - \( A_3 = 1 + 2D \) ...
