Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following is a characteristic of harmonic progressions?
  • Step 1: Understand what a harmonic progression is. A harmonic progression is a sequence of numbers where the reciprocals of the numbers form an arithmetic progression.
  • Step 2: Recall that in a harmonic progression, the terms themselves must be positive numbers. This is because the reciprocal of a negative number is also negative, which would not fit the definition of a harmonic sequence.
  • Step 3: Recognize that while a harmonic progression can include negative numbers in its sequence, the actual terms must be positive to maintain the definition.
