Question

What is the common ratio between successive terms in the sequence? 2, –4, 8, –16, 32, –64, ... –2 –6 6 2

Answer 1

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

You multiply each term by -2 to get the next term.

To find this for this sequence, divide the term on the right by the term on the left.

8 / -4 = -2              or          -4 * -2 = 8

-16 / 8 = -2             or         8 * -2 = -16

32 / -16 = -2           or         -16 * -2 = 32

-64 / 32 = -2           or         32 * -2 = -64
