Question 15

If fraction numerator a to the power of n plus b to the power of n over denominator a to the power of n minus 1 end exponent plus b to the power of n minus 1 end exponent end fractionis the A.M. between a and b, then find the value of n.

Answer

A.M. of a and b = fraction numerator a plus b over denominator 2 end fraction

According to the given condition,

fraction numerator a plus b over denominator 2 end fraction equals fraction numerator a to the power of n space space space end exponent plus space b to the power of n over denominator a to the power of n minus 1 end exponent plus b to the power of n minus 1 end exponent end fraction
rightwards double arrow open parentheses a plus b close parentheses open parentheses a to the power of n minus 1 end exponent plus b to the power of n minus 1 end exponent close parentheses equals 2 open parentheses a to the power of n plus b to the power of n close parentheses
rightwards double arrow a to the power of n plus a b to the power of n minus 1 end exponent plus b a to the power of n minus 1 end exponent plus b to the power of n equals 2 a to the power of n plus 2 b to the power of n
rightwards double arrow a b to the power of n minus 1 end exponent plus a to the power of n minus 1 end exponent b equals a to the power of n plus b to the power of n
rightwards double arrow a b to the power of n minus 1 end exponent minus b to the power of n equals a to the power of n minus a to the power of n minus 1 end exponent b
rightwards double arrow b to the power of n minus 1 end exponent open parentheses a minus b close parentheses equals a to the power of n minus 1 end exponent open parentheses a minus b close parentheses
rightwards double arrow b to the power of n minus 1 end exponent equals a to the power of n minus 1 end exponent
rightwards double arrow open parentheses a over b close parentheses to the power of n minus 1 end exponent equals 1 equals open parentheses a over b close parentheses to the power of 0
rightwards double arrow n minus 1 equals 0
rightwards double arrow n equals 1
