उत्तर

t3 = 20, t6 = 160 

tn = arn–1

∴ t3 = ar3–1 = ar2

∴ ar2 = 20

∴ a = `20/"r"^2`   ...(i)

Also, t6 = ar5

ar5 = 160

∴ `(20/"r"^2)"r"^5` = 160    ...[From (i)]

∴ r3 = `160/20` = 8

∴ r = 2

Substituting the value of r in (i) we get

a = `20/2^2` = 5

Now, Sn = `("a"("r"^"n"- 1))/("r" - 1)`, for r > 1

∴ S7 = `(5(2^7 - 1))/(2 - 1)`

= 5(128 – 1)

= 635
