Solution
The correct option is
B
a
3
+
c
3
>
3
b
3
Given that a,b,c are in HP we know that
A
M
⩾
G
M
⩾
H
M
here
a
,
b
,
c
are unequal so equality
will not hold i.e
A
M
>
G
M
>
H
M
∴
a
,
b
,
c
are in
H
P
, so
2
a
c
a
+
c
=
b
H
M
of
a
and
c
=
2

a
+
1
c
=

a
c
a
+
c
=
b
G
⋅
M
of
a
′
and
c
′
=
(
a
c
)
1
/
2
=
√
a
c
Now, as
G
M
>
H
M
so
√
a
c
>
b
⇒
(
√
a
c
)
n
>
b
n
⋯
(
1
)
,
n
∈
N
Let us take two numbers
,
a
n
and
c
n
⋅
a
n
+
c
n
2
>
(
a
n
⋅
c
n
)
1
/
2
⇒
a
n
+
c
n
2
>
(
√
a
c
)
n
⋯
(
2
)
After analysis equations (1) and (2)
a
n
+
c
n
2
>
b
n
⇒
a
n
+
c
n
>
2
b
n
so if
n
=
2
→
a
2
+
c
2
>
2
b
2
if
n
=
5
→
a
5
+
b
5
>
2
b
5
if
n
=
4
→
a
4
+
b
4
>
2
b
4
if
n
=
3
→
a
3
+
b
3
>
2
b
3
so we can clearly say that option (B
is incorrect.
