Answer:
d) 303 8/9
Step-by-step explanation:
4th term = ar^3 and 5th = ar^4 where a = first term and r = common ratio.
So ar^4 / ar^3
= r = 45/-15 = -3.
Working back,:
The first term a = ar^3/ r^3
= -15 / (-3)^3
= -15/-27
= 5/9
Sum of n terms = a * (r^n - 1)/(r-1)
= 5/9 * ((-3)^7 - 1 ) / (-3 -1)
= 303 8/9

I remember CUP -- concave up positive. Here we have a leading coefficient that's negative, so the cup is upside down, the parabola opens down, an arch not a bowl.
G divides each median in the ratio of 2 to 1 (the longer side goes from G to the angle)
triangle AMN is similar to triangle ABC (why?)
AMN is a scaled version of ABC (by a factor of ⅔)
its area should be scaled by (⅔)^2
