It is given in the question that,

Since we have the value of r given, so we have to use the formula to find the nth term of the geometric progression, which is

Substituting the values of a and r, we will get

So the correct option is the third option .
Let x represent the worth of the professional basketball player's autograph a year ago. Since his autograph's worth increased by 40% now, $364 is 1.40x.
364 = 1.40x
Solving for x gives x = 260.
Thus, the autograph of the basketball player was worth only $260 last year.
Expected is -3
Expect to lose $3… bad game right there!
The answer is x=20. You isolate the square root. Eliminate the radical on the left handside. And then solve it!
You have to find the LCM (least common multiple) of both numbers.
3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15
5: 5, 10, 15
