The function is given by

y=45,200 + 1,900x

and is of the form y = mx+b , where m is the rate of change and b is the fixed value ( or we can say initial value)

Now when we compare we get m = 1,900 for our problem .

So the population increases every year by 1,900.

Part A

Answer: The common ratio is -2

-----------------------------------

Explanation: 

To get the common ratio r, we divide any term by the previous one

One example:
r = common ratio
r = (second term)/(first term)
r = (-2)/(1)
r = -2

Another example:
r = common ratio
r = (third term)/(second term)
r = (4)/(-2)
r = -2
and we get the same common ratio every time

Side Note: each term is multiplied by -2 to get the next term

============================================================
Part B

Answer:
The rule for the sequence is 
a(n) = (-2)^(n-1)
where n starts at n = 1

-----------------------------------

Explanation:

Recall that any geometric sequence has the nth term
a(n) = a*(r)^(n-1)
where the 'a' on the right side is the first term and r is the common ratio

The first term given to use is a = 1 and the common ratio found in part A above was r = -2
So,
a(n) = a*(r)^(n-1)
a(n) = 1*(-2)^(n-1)
a(n) = (-2)^(n-1)

============================================================
Part C

Answer: The next three terms are 16, -32, 64

-----------------------------------

Explanation:

We can simply multiply each previous term by -2 to get the next term. Do this three times to generate the next three terms

-8*(-2) = 16
16*(-2) = -32
-32*(-2) = 64

showing that the next three terms are 16, -32, and 64

An alternative is to use the formula found in part B

Plug in n = 5 to find the fifth term
a(n) = (-2)^(n-1)
a(5) = (-2)^(5-1)
a(5) = (-2)^(4)
a(5) = 16 .... which matches with what we got earlier

Then plug in n = 6
a(n) = (-2)^(n-1)
a(6) = (-2)^(6-1)
a(6) = (-2)^(5)
a(6) = -32 .... which matches with what we got earlier

Then plug in n = 7
a(n) = (-2)^(n-1)
a(7) = (-2)^(7-1)
a(7) = (-2)^(6)
a(7) = 64 .... which matches with what we got earlier

while the second method takes a bit more work, its handy for when you want to find terms beyond the given sequence (eg: the 28th term)
