Let a, b, c be positive integers such that a + b + c = n. Match the items of column I with that of column II
Column-I | Column-II |
(i) (aa bbcc)1/n is less than or equal to | [A] |
(ii) (abbcca)1/n is less than or equal to | [B] |
(iii) (acbacb)1/n is less than or equal to | [C] abc |
(iv) (aa bbcc)1/n +(abbcca)1/n + (acbacb)1/n is less than or equal to | [D] n |
Text Solution
Verified by Experts(i) [B]; (ii) [A]; (iii) [A]; (iv) [C]; (iii) (iv)
Ans.
(i) [B], [C]
(ii) [A], [B], [C]
(iii) [A], [B], [C]
(iv) [C] , [D]
Sol. (i)

≥ 
⇒
≥
and a a/n b b/n c c/n ≤ abc
(ii)

≥ 
⇒
≥ (a b b c c a ) 1/n
Also a b/n b c/n c a/n ≤ abc
also a b/n b c/n c a/n ≤ 
and a b/n b c/n c a/n ≤ a + b + c = n
(iii) Similarly for (iii)
(iv) ≤ 
=
= n = a + b + c
also ≤ abc
