Given:
- The product of the first five terms of a geometric series is 243
- The third term of the geometric series is equal to the tenth term of an arithmetic series
To find:
- The sum of the first 19 terms of the arithmetic series
We take both the geometric and arithmetic series to be progressions in order to solve the problem:
Let the five tems of the G. P. are
a/r^2, a/r, a, ar, ar^2
Given that, the product of these terms = 243
or, a/r^2 * a/r * a * ar * ar^2 = 243
or, a^5 = 243
or, a^5 = 3^5
or, a = 3
So, the third term of the G. P. is 3.
We consider the A. P. as
b, b + d, b + 2d, ..., b + (n - 1)d, ...
Here, the 10th term of the A. P. is
= b + (10 - 1) d
= b + 9d
ATQ, b + 9d = 3
∴ the sum of the first 19 terms of the A. P. is
= 19/2 * [2b + (19 - 1) d]
= 19/2 * (2b + 18d)
= 19 * (b + 9d)
= 19 * 3
= 57.
