4th term / second term = a1r^3 / a1r = r^2

so r^2 = 45/4 / 20 = 45/80 = 9/16

so r = sqrt 9/16 = 3/4 answer

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

$4x^2-11=89$

add 11 to both sides

$4x^2=100$

Divide 4 on both sides

$x^2=25$

Take the square root of both sides to eliminate the power of two from x

$\sqrt{x^2} =\sqrt{25}$

Simplify

$x=5$
