Answer:
Given:
24th term of an A.P is twice it's 10th term
To prove:
72nd term is 4 times it's 15th term
Step-by-step explanation:
Considerd a to be the 1st term and d to be the common difference of an A.P.
From given,
a24=2a10......(1)
We know that,
an=a+(n-1)d.......(2)
Thus, a24=a+23d and a10=a+9d
substitute the value of a24 and a10 in equation (1), we get
a+23d=2(a+9d)
a+23d=2a+18d
Now, shift the terms to right hand side and keep the d term in left hand side, we get
23-18d=2a-a
a=5d
Now, from question
a72/a15=a+71d/a+14d
Now, substitute the value of a=5in above equation, we get
a72/a15=76d/19d
a72/a15=4
a72=4(a15)
Therefore, the 72nd term is 14 times the 15th term,
Hence proved
