解答

(a)

解法一

思路

展开

第二项到第四项相差两个公差。求出首项和末项的项号后,用首末项平均数求和。

答题过程

展开

The common difference is (52−60)/2=−4(52-60)/2=-4, so the first term is 6464. If the last term is term nn, then 64−4(n−1)=−2864-4(n-1)=-28, giving n=24n=24. Hence the sum is

242(64−28)=432.\frac{24}{2}(64-28)=432.

(b)(i)

解法一

思路

展开

连续三项为等比数列时,中项的平方等于两端之积。只保留负的 kk。

答题过程

展开

We have (k+4)2=9k2(k+4)^2=9k^2, so 8k2−8k−16=8(k−2)(k+1)=08k^2-8k-16=8(k-2)(k+1)=0. Since k<0k<0, k=−1k=-1.

解法二

思路

展开

先以公比为未知数。第二项已知为 99,所以第三、第四项可分别写成 9r9r、9r29r^2。

答题过程

展开

Let the common ratio be rr. The third term gives k+4=9rk+4=9r, so k=9r−4k=9r-4. Using the fourth term,

9r2= (9r−4)272r2−72r+16= 08(3r−1)(3r−2)= 0.\begin{align*} 9r^2=&\,(9r-4)^2\\ 72r^2-72r+16=&\,0\\ 8(3r-1)(3r-2)=&\,0. \end{align*}

Thus r=1/3r=1/3 or r=2/3r=2/3, giving k=−1k=-1 or k=2k=2, respectively. Since k<0k<0, the required value is k=−1k=-1.

(b)(ii)

解法一

思路

展开

用第二、第三项求公比,再从第二项退回首项。

答题过程

展开

With k=−1k=-1, the third term is 33, so the ratio is 3/9=1/33/9=1/3. The first term is 9/(1/3)=279/(1/3)=27. Since ∣1/3∣<1|1/3|<1, the sum to infinity is 27/(1−1/3)=81/227/(1-1/3)=81/2.
