It's going to be going up. That means the answer is b.
Hope this helped☺☺
The rule of geometric sequence is ⇒⇒⇒ a * r^(n-1)
Where a is the first term and r is the common ratio
for the given sequence √5 , √10 , 2√5 , .......
a = √5
r = √10 / √5 = √2
The ninth term = √5 * (√2)^(9-1) = √5 * (√2)⁸ = 16 √5
the correct answer is the third option 16√5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first integer be x
2nd integer = x + 1
3rd integer = x + 2
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = -147
3x + 3 = -147
3x = -147 - 3
3x = -150
x = -150 ÷ 3
x = -50
The three consecutive integers are
-50, -49, -48
