Misal U1 = a/r U2 = a u3 = ar U1 . U2. U3 = a/r x a x ar 216 = a^3 a = 6 U1 + U2 + U3 = a/r + a +ar 26 = 6/r + 6 + 6r 26 r = 6 + 6r + 6r^2 6r^2 - 20 + 6 = 0 (6r-2) (r - 3) = 0 r = 2/6 = 1/3 atau r = 3 jika r = 1/3 maka U1 = 18 , U2 = 6 , U3 = 2 Jika r = 3 maka U1 = 2, U2 = 6 U3 = 18
U2 = a
u3 = ar
U1 . U2. U3 = a/r x a x ar
216 = a^3
a = 6
U1 + U2 + U3 = a/r + a +ar
26 = 6/r + 6 + 6r
26 r = 6 + 6r + 6r^2
6r^2 - 20 + 6 = 0
(6r-2) (r - 3) = 0
r = 2/6 = 1/3 atau r = 3
jika r = 1/3 maka U1 = 18 , U2 = 6 , U3 = 2
Jika r = 3 maka U1 = 2, U2 = 6 U3 = 18
