Answer:

The right answer is d. 3, 6, 12, 24, 48

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the right answer, we need to know that for a sequence to be a geometric sequence; each term has to be multiple of the previous term, and it has to be the same multiple for all terms.

we're going to check all the answer to seek the right answer.

Checking a. 1, 3, 5, 7, 9.

Three is three times 1, but 5 isn't multiple of 3, with this we can see a isn't the right answer.

Checking b. 2, 4, 6, 8, 10,

Four is twice 2, but 6 isn't multiple of 4, with this, we can see b isn't the right answer

Checking c. 2, 5, 7, 10, 12,

Five isn't multiple of 2 so, c isn't the right answer.

Checking d. 3, 6, 12, 24, 48,

Six is  twice three; twelve is twice six, twenty-four is twice twelve, and

forty-eight is twice twenty-four.

we can see that in d all the terms are multiples and twice the previous term, so this is the right answer.

<h3>Answer: Choice D)  3, 6, 12, 24, 48</h3>

===============================================

Explanation:

Sequence A is not geometric. Dividing each term by its previous term does not lead to the same common ratio. For instance, 3/1 = 3 and 5/3 = 1.67

Sequence B is a similar story. We have 4/2 = 2 and -6/4 = -1.5

Sequence C is similar as well. This time 5/2 = 2.5 and 7/5 = 1.4

--------

Sequence D is geometric because dividing each term over its previous term leads to the same common ratio

6/3 = 2

12/6 = 2

24/12 = 2

48/12 = 2

The common ratio is r = 2.

Put another way, each term is multiplied by 2 to get the next term

3*2 = 6

6*2 = 12

12*2 = 24

24*2 = 48

Ira Lisetskai [31]
Answer:

Ronnie's annual salary this year = $38,850

Explanations:

Ronnie's annual salary last year = $37,000

Percentage increase in Ronnie's salary = 5%

Increase in Ronnie's salary = 5% of 37000 = 5/100 x 37000

Increase in Ronnie's salary = $1850

Ronnie's annual salary this year = Ronnie's annual salary last year + Increase

Ronnie's annual salary this year = $37000 + $1850

Ronnie's annual salary this year = $38,850

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Number of apples is the prediction of the total weight an extrapolation is:

                                        18

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

<u>Extrapolation--</u>

The extrapolation of a data point is an estimation of the value of the point based on the data that is provided to us.

In short it is a process of the estimation of the data which are beyond the original observation of the data  that is provided to us.

         Hence, here the extrapolated data is:

                              18

( Since 18 is beyond the range as the curve goes out of the area )
