Solution
The correct option is
D
r
n
−
r
+
1
Let
n
AMs are inserted between
a
and
b
i.e
a
,
x
1
,
x
2
,
.
.
.
x
n
,
b
b
=
a
+
(
n
+
1
)
d
∴
b
−
a
n
+
1
=
d
∴
x
r
=
T
r

=
a
+
r
d
=
a

r
(
b

(
n

)

Put
a
=
x
and
b
=
2
y
and then again put
a
=
2
x
and
b
=
y
and equate the results as the two means are equal
∴
x
(
n
−
r
+
1
)
+
2
y
r
n
+
1
=
2
x
(
n
−
r
+
1
)
+
y
r
n
+
1
∴
x
(
n
−
r
+
1
)
=
y
r
⇒
x
y
=
r
n
−
r
+
