The general form of a geometric sequence is: a, ar, ar², ar³, . . .
Here a = 2 and r = 3.
term of a Geometric progression is
.
Note that the fourth term is 54.
i.e., 
.
Similarly,
.
Also,
.
Hence, OPTION B is the answer.
The answer for this question is choice c. Memorization is not a good way to truly understand math. You want to understand the reasoning behind your answers always.
A math expert is what you should strive to be! The first two choices are great ways to become this.
3(5-2)
3x3 = 9
the answer is 9
1) 2(6-8x)
2) 4(3-4x)
That seems about right.
