(i) Reciprocal of (3/7) is (7/3) [∵ ((3/7) × (7/3)) = 1]

So, it is an improper fraction.

Improper fraction is that fraction in which numerator is greater than its denominator.

Reciprocal of (5/8) is (8/5) [∵ ((5/8) × (8/5)) = 1]

So, it is an improper fraction.

Improper fraction is that fraction in which numerator is greater than its denominator.

2.7: Exercises - Mathematics

Exercise 1.2.7. Start with equation (4) from p. 8 of the text:

where a solution can be found for b = (2, 5, 7) and cannot be found for b = (2, 5, 6). Find two more values of b for which a solution can be found, and two more for which no solution is possible.

Answer: As noted in the text, the three columns (1, 2, 3), (1, 0, 1), and (1, 3, 4) lie in a plane, since three times (1, 2, 3) plus (1, 0, 1) equals twice (1, 3, 4). In other words, one of the three columns can be expressed as a linear combination of the other two. The value b = (2, 5, 7) is also in the same plane, being expressible as (1, 2, 3) plus (1, 3, 4).

So to find additional b for which a solution is possible, we can simply take any b in the same plane as the other vectors. One possibility is twice (2, 5, 7) or (4, 10, 14). Another is (1, 0, 1) plus (1, 3, 4) or (2, 3, 5).

We can then take those solutions and find values of b for which the equations cannot be solved, by looking for values of b not in the same plane as the previous vectors. One possibility is (4, 10, 15), another is (2, 3, 6).

Question 1.
Which of the following sequences are in G.P?
(i) 3, 9, 27, 81, ……..
(ii) 4, 44, 444, 4444, ………
(iii) 0.5, 0.05, 0.005, ……..
(iv) (frac < 1 > < 3 >),(frac < 1 > < 6 >),(frac < 1 > < 12 >)………
(v) 1, -5, 25, -125, …….
(vi) 120, 60, 30, 18, …….
(vii) 16, 4, 1, (frac < 1 > < 4 >), ……
Solution:
(i) 3, 9, 27, 81
r = Common ratio

Question 2.
Write the first three terms of the G.P. whose first term and the common ratio are given below.
(i) a = 6, r = 3
(ii) a = (sqrt < 2 >) , r = (sqrt < 2 >)
(iii) a = 1000, r = (frac < 2 > < 5 >)
Solution:
(i) a = 6, r = 3
tn = ar n-1
t1 = ar 1-1 = ar 0 = a = 6
t2 = ar 2-1 = ar 1 = 6 × 3 = 18
t3 = ar 3-1 = ar 2 = 6 × 3 2 = 54
∴ The 3 terms are 6, 18, 54, ….

The 3 terms are 1000, 400, 160, ……………

Question 3.
In a G.P. 729, 243, 81,… find t7.
Solution:
G.P = 729, 243, 81 ……
t7 = ?

Question 4.
Find x so that x + 6, x + 12 and x + 15 are consecutive terms of a Geometric Progression.
(frac>>) = (frac < x+12 > < x+6 >),(frac>>) = (frac < x+15 > < x+12 >)
Since it is a G.P.
(frac < x+12 > < x+6 >) = (frac < x+15 > < x+12 >)
(x + 12) 2 = (x + 6) (x + 15)
x 2 + 24x + 144 = x 2 + 21x + 90
3x = -54 ⇒ x = (frac < -54 > < 3 >) = -18

Question 5.
Find the number of terms in the following G.P.
(i),4, 8, 16, …, 8192
(ii) (frac < 1 > < 3 >),(frac < 1 > < 9 >),(frac < 1 > < 27 >),……(frac < 1 > < 2187 >)
Solution:
(i) 4, 8, 16, …… 8192

Question 6.
In a G.P. the 9 th term is 32805 and 6 th term is 1215. Find the 12th term.
Solution:
In a G.P
tn = ar n-1
t9 = 32805
t6 = 1215
t12 = ?
Let
t9 = ar 8 = 32805 ………(1)
t6 = ar 5 = 1215 ………. (2)

Question 7.
Find the 10th term of a G.P. whose 8 th term is 768 and the common ratio is 2.
Here r = 2, t8 = 768
t8 = 768 (tn = ar n-1 )
a. r 8-1 = 768
ar 7 = 768 …..(1)
10 th term of a G.P. = a.r 10 -1
= ar 9
= (ar 7 ) × (r 2 )
= 768 × 2 2 (from 1)
= 768 × 4 = 3072
∴ 10 th term of a G.P. = 3072

Question 9.
In a G.P. the product of three consecutive terms is 27 and the sum of the product of two terms taken at a time is (frac < 57 > < 2 >). Find the three terms.
Solution:
Let the three consecutive terms in a G.P are (frac < a > < r >), a, ar.
Their Product = (frac < a > < r >) × a × ar = 27
a 3 = 27 = 3 3
a = 3
Sum of the product of terms taken two at a time is (frac < 57 > < 2 >)

Question 10.
A man joined a company as Assistant Manager. The company gave him a starting salary of ₹60,000 and agreed to increase his salary 5% annually. What will be his salary after 5 years?
Solution:
Starting salary = ₹ 60,000
Increase per year = 5%
∴ At the end of 1 year the increase
= 60,0,00 × (frac < 5 > < 100 >)
₹ 3000
∴ At the end of first year his salary
= ₹ 60,000 + 3000
I year salary = ₹ 63,000
II Year increase = 63000 × (frac < 5 > < 100 >)
At the end of II year, salary
= 63000 + 3150
= ₹ 66150
III Year increase = 66150 × (frac < 5 > < 100 >)
= 3307.50
At the end of III year, salary = 66150 + 3307.50
= ₹ 69457.50
IV year increase = 69457.50 × (frac < 5 > < 100 >)
= ₹ 3472.87

Question 11.
Sivamani is attending an interview for a job and the company gave two offers to him. Offer A: ₹ 20,000 to start with followed by a guaranteed annual increase of 3% for the first 5 years.
Offer B: ₹ 22,000 to start with followed by a guaranteed annual increase of 3% for the first 5 years.
What is his salary in the 4th year with respect to the offers A and B?
Solution:
Offer A
Starting salary ₹ 20,000
Annual increase 6%

At the end of
III year ,salary = 22472 + 1348 = 23820
∴ IV year salary = ₹ 23820
Offer B
Starting salary = ₹ 22,000

Salary as per Option A = ₹ 23820
Salary as per Option B = ₹ 24040
∴ Option B is better.
