Step-by-step explanation:
when we get the common ratio that must be equal
r=6/2=18/6=54/18=3 equal
So it is geometric
By using this equation:
a(n)=a(1)*r^(n-1)
and we have a(1)=2 , r=3
Explicit rule: a(n)=2*(3)^(n-1)

C. Yes because it passes the vertical line test
Answer:
9y(2x - 1)(x - 2y)(x + 2y)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
18x³y - 9x²y - 72xy³ + 36y³ ← factor out 9y from each term
= 9y(2x³ - x² - 8xy² + 4y²)
Factor the first/second and third/fourth term in the parenthesis
= 9y( x²(2x - 1) - 4y²(2x - 1)) ← factor out (2x - 1) from each term
= 9y(2x - 1)(x² - 4y²)
x² - 4y² is a difference of squares and factors in general as
a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b), thus
x² - 4y²
= x² - (2y)² = (x - 2y)(x + 2y), hence
18x³y - 9x²y + 72xy³ + 36y³
= 9y(2x - 1)(x - 2y)(x + 2y) ← in factored form
