Correct answer: B
- Find the arithmetic progression
Given and are in A.P. Let the common difference be . Then
The mean of 100 terms of an A.P. is the average of first and last terms: So,
But therefore
Hence
- Compute
Given Substitute :
So the mean of is
- Use summation formulas
We know
Thus
Therefore the mean is
- Match with options
So the correct option is B.
- Comparison with stored answer
Stored correct answer: B
Our derived answer: B
They agree.
