5. If a, b, c, d and p are different real numbers such that (a + b + c )p – 2(ab
+ bc + cd) p + (b2. + c2 + d2) ≤ 0, then show that a, b, c and d are in G.P. (2)
6. A G.P. consists of an even number of terms. If the sum of all the terms is 5
21
times the sum of terms occupying odd places, then find its common ratio.(2)
7. Find the sum of the following series up to n terms: (2)
a. 5 + 55 +555 + … 80
b. .6 +. 66 +. 666+…
8. The sum of three numbers in G.P. is 56. If we subtract 1, 7, 21 from these
numbers in that order, we obtain an arithmetic progression. Find the
