Objective Question II

(One or more than one correct option)

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 4. (b)

Solution:

  1. Let the common ratio of the GP be r. Then,

y=xr and z=xr2

lny=lnx+lnr and lnz=lnx+2lnr

Let

A=1+lnx,D=lnr

Then, 11+lnx=1A,11+lny=11+lnx+lnr=1A+D

and 11+lnz=11+lnx+2lnr=1A+2D

Therefore, 11+lnx,11+lny,11+lnz are in HP.
