發問:

The sume of the 4th term and the 5th term of a geometric sequence is -4. If the sum of the first two terms is 32, find the first term of the sequence.

最佳解答:

4th + 5th = ar3 + ar ?= - 4 ...... (1)1st + 2nd = a + ar = 32 ...... (2) (1) / (2) :( ar3 + ar ?) / (a + ar) = - 4 / 32 ar3 (1 + r) / ( a (1 + r) ) = - 1/8 r3 = - 1/8 r = - 1/2 Sub. into (2) :a + a(- 1/2) = 32 a/2 = 32 a = 64 The first term of the sequence is 64.

其他解答:

如果是應付選擇題(multiple choice),以下是最快的方法: 公式: y / ( 1 + ( x/y ) ^ ( 1/d ) ) = 32 / ( 1 + (-4/32) ^ (1/3) ) = 64 熟練的同學應該可以十秒內準確地完成題目。 詳情: 先將題目變為: The sum of the (d + 1) th term and the (d + 2) th term of a geometric sequence is x. If the sum of the first two terms is y. 在此題目, (d+1)=4 (d+2) = 5 d=3 x = -4 y = 32 The first term of the sequence = y / ( 1 + ( x/y ) ^ ( 1/d ) ) = 32 / ( 1 + (-4/32) ^ (1/3) ) = 32 / ( 1 + (-1/8) ^ (1/3) ) = 32 / ( 1 + (-1/2) ) = 32 / ( 1 - 1/2) = 32 / ( 1/2 ) = 32 / ( 0.5 ) = 64 註: (-1/8) ^ (1/3) 的意思是 負八份之一的開方三次 即係負二份之一(i.e. -1/2) 同學可以到以下網址練習此類題目: http://www.ktlam.hk/hkmath/index/d3dc2f17
