Question

If in a progression a subscript 1 end subscript comma a subscript 2 end subscript comma horizontal ellipsis comma etc., left parenthesis a subscript r end subscript minus a subscript r plus 1 end subscript right parenthesis bears a constant ratio with a subscript r end subscript cross times a subscript r plus 1 end subscript, then the terms of the progression are in

  1. A.P.  
  2. G.P.  
  3. H.P.  
  4. None of these  

The correct answer is: H.P.


    fraction numerator a subscript r end subscript minus a subscript r plus 1 end subscript over denominator a subscript r end subscript blank a subscript r plus 1 end subscript end fraction equals k (constant)
    rightwards double arrow fraction numerator 1 over denominator a subscript r plus 1 end subscript end fraction minus fraction numerator 1 over denominator a subscript r end subscript end fraction equals k
    rightwards double arrow fraction numerator 1 over denominator a subscript 1 end subscript end fraction comma fraction numerator 1 over denominator a subscript 2 end subscript end fraction comma horizontal ellipsis comma fraction numerator 1 over denominator a subscript n end subscript end fraction are in A.P.
    rightwards double arrow a subscript 1 end subscript comma a subscript 2 end subscript comma a subscript 3 end subscript comma horizontal ellipsis comma are in H.P.
