Step-by-step explanation:
Answer :
Given: P(15, r – 1) : P(16, r – 2) = 3 : 4
To find: value of r
We know,
So, according to question:
P(15, r – 1) : P(16, r – 2) = 3 : 4
⇒ (18 – r) (17 – r) = 12
⇒ 306 – 18r – 17r + r2 = 12
⇒ 306 – 12 – 35r + r2 = 0
⇒ r2 – 35r + 294 = 0
⇒ r2 – 21r – 14r + 294 = 0
⇒ r(r – 21) – 14(r – 21) = 0
⇒ (r – 14) (r – 21) = 0
⇒ r = 14 or 21
For, P(n, r): r ≤ n
∴ r = 14 {for, P(15, r – 1)}
