Solution

Suppose ${d_1}$ is the common difference of the $A.P.$

${x_1},{x_2},….{x_n}$ then

$\because $ ${x_8} – {x_3} = 5{d_1} = 12 \Rightarrow {d_1} = \frac{{12}}{5} = 2.4$

$ \Rightarrow {x_5} = {x_3} + 2{d_1} = 8 + 2 \times \frac{{12}}{5} = 12.8$

Suppose ${d_2}$ is the common difference of the $A.P.$ $\frac{1}{{{h_1}}},\frac{1}{{{h_2}}},…..\frac{1}{{{h_n}}}$ then

$5{d_2} = \frac{1}{{20}} – \frac{1}{8} = \frac{{ – 3}}{{40}} \Rightarrow {d_2} = \frac{{ – 3}}{{200}}$

$\because$ $\frac{1}{{{h_{10}}}} = \frac{1}{{{h_7}}} + 3{d_2} = \frac{1}{{200}} \Rightarrow {h_{10}} = 200$

$ \Rightarrow {x_5}.{h_{10}} = 12.8 \times 200 = 2560$
