Let five terms in G.P. be a/r², a/r, a, ar, ar²
Then, a (r? ² + r? ¹ + 1 + r + r²) / (1/a) (r? ² + r? ¹ + 1 + r? ¹ + r? ²) = 49
⇒ a² = 49 ⇒ a = ±7
Also, a/r² + a = 35
Therefore, a = -7 is not possible
Now, fifth term = ar² = a (7/28) = p ⇒ 4p = 7

R2 = {a is integral multiple of b}
So n (R1 – R2) = 66 – 20 = 46

⇒ (y, x) ∈ R V (x, y) ∈ R
(x, y) ∈ R ⇒ 2x = 3y and (y, x) ∈ R ⇒ 3x = 2y
Which holds only for (0, 0)
Which does not belongs to R.
∴ Value of n = 0
f is increasing function
x < 5x < 7x

f (x) < f (5x) < f (7x)
->
Given f (k) =
Case I : If x is even then g (x) = x . (i)
Case II : If x is odd then g (x + 1) = x + 1 . (ii)
From (i) & (ii), g (x) = x, when x is even
So total no. of functions = 105 × 1 = 105
