设等差数列{an}的前n项和为Sn,已知a3=12,S12>0,S13<0. (1)求公差d的取

设等差数列{an}的前n项和为Sn,已知a3=12,S12>0,S13<0.

(1)求公差d的取值范围;

(2)指出S1S2、…、S12中哪一个值最大,并说明理由.

答案

(1)-d<-3(2)k=6,即在S1S2,…,S12中,S6最大


解析:

(1)依题意有:

解之得公差d的取值范围为-d<-3.

(2)由d<0可知a1>a2>a3>…>a12>a13,因此,在S1S2,…,S12Sk为最大值的条件为:

ak≥0且ak+1<0,即

a3=12,∴,∵d<0,∴2-k≤3-

∵-d<-3,∴<-<4,得5.5<k<7.

因为k是正整数,所以k=6,即在S1S2,…,S12中,S6最大.
