Answer:

S₃ = 37

Step-by-step explanation:

given a₁ = 16 and r = $\frac{3}{4}$ , then

a₂ = a₁ × $\frac{3}{4}$ = 16 × $\frac{3}{4}$ = 12

a₃ = a₂ × $\frac{3}{4}$ = 12 × $\frac{3}{4}$ = 9

then

S₃ = a₁ + a₂ + a₃ = 16 + 12 + 9 = 37

A quadratic equation is one in which the highest exponent of x is 2.
$7x^2+14x=0$ is quadratic; the highest exponent is 2.
x³-3x²+1=0 is NOT quadratic. The highest exponent of x is 3, not 2.
5x-7=0 is NOT quadratic. The highest exponent of x is 1, not 2.
x²+3x-5=0 is quadratic; the highest exponent of x is 2.
x-5=9x+7 is NOT quadratic. The highest exponent of x is 1, not 2.
x²-x=3x+7 is quadratic; the highest exponent of x is 2.
