The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of the expression: \[ \frac{a_1 + a_2}{\sqrt{a_1} + \sqrt{a_2}} + \frac{a_2 + a_{2n-1}}{\sqrt{a_2} + \sqrt{a_3}} + \ldots + \frac{a_n + a_{n+1}}{\sqrt{a_n} + \sqrt{a_{n+1}}} \] Given that \( a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_{2n} \) are in Arithmetic Progression (A.P.), we can denote the first term as \( a_1 \) and the common difference as \( d \). Thus, we have: \[ a_r = a_1 + (r-1)d \quad \text{for } r = 1, 2, \ldots, 2n \] ### Step 1: Identify the Terms in the Expression The terms in the expression can be rewritten using the general formula for the terms in A.P.: - \( a_1 = a_1 \) - \( a_2 = a_1 + d \) - \( a_3 = a_1 + 2d \) - ... - \( a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d \) - \( a_{n+1} = a_1 + nd \) - ... - \( a_{2n} = a_1 + (2n-1)d \) ### Step 2: Rewrite Each Fraction Now, we can rewrite each term in the expression: \[ \frac{a_1 + a_2}{\sqrt{a_1} + \sqrt{a_2}} = \frac{a_1 + (a_1 + d)}{\sqrt{a_1} + \sqrt{a_1 + d}} = \frac{2a_1 + d}{\sqrt{a_1} + \sqrt{a_1 + d}} \] Continuing this process for each term, we will have: \[ \frac{a_2 + a_{2n-1}}{\sqrt{a_2} + \sqrt{a_{2n-1}}} = \frac{(a_1 + d) + (a_1 + (2n-2)d)}{\sqrt{a_1 + d} + \sqrt{a_1 + (2n-2)d}} \] And so forth for each term. ### Step 3: Simplify the Expression We can see that each term can be simplified using the identity: \[ \frac{x+y}{\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{y}} = \sqrt{x} + \sqrt{y} \] Thus, we can rewrite the entire expression as: \[ \sum_{r=1}^{n} \left( \sqrt{a_r} + \sqrt{a_{r+1}} \right) \] ### Step 4: Calculate the Final Sum The sum can be calculated as: \[ \sum_{r=1}^{n} \left( \sqrt{a_r} + \sqrt{a_{r+1}} \right) = \sqrt{a_1} + \sqrt{a_2} + \sqrt{a_2} + \sqrt{a_3} + \ldots + \sqrt{a_n} + \sqrt{a_{n+1}} \] This results in: \[ = \sqrt{a_1} + 2\sum_{r=2}^{n} \sqrt{a_r} + \sqrt{a_{n+1}} \] ### Final Result Thus, the final result is: \[ \frac{n(a_1 + a_{2n})}{\sqrt{a_1} + \sqrt{a_{2n}}} \]

To solve the problem, we need to find the value of the expression: \[ \frac{a_1 + a_2}{\sqrt{a_1} + \sqrt{a_2}} + \frac{a_2 + a_{2n-1}}{\sqrt{a_2} + \sqrt{a_3}} + \ldots + \frac{a_n + a_{n+1}}{\sqrt{a_n} + \sqrt{a_{n+1}}} \] Given that \( a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_{2n} \) are in Arithmetic Progression (A.P.), we can denote the first term as \( a_1 \) and the common difference as \( d \). Thus, we have: ...
