Given:
For a Geometric progression, the value of a is 3. The value of t7 is 192.
To Find:
The common ratio and the value of t11.
Solution:
1. Consider a G.P with first term a and common ratio r. The nth term of a G.P is given by the formula,
=> nth term =.
2. The value of a is 3. The value of the 7th term is 192. Hence,
=> t7 = ar^6 = 192,
=> 3r^6 = 192,
=> r^6 = 64,
=> r^6 = 2^6,
=> r = 2.
=> Common ratio = 2.
3. The value of t11 is,
=> t11 = a*(r^10),
=> t11 = 3*(2^10),
=> t11 = 3(1024),
=> t11 = 3072.
Therefore, the value of r and t11 are 2 and 3072 respectively.
