A geometric sequence is a sequence in which there is a common ratio between any two consecutive terms. In this case if X:Y:Z are in the ratio of 2:7:8 the multiplying by a constant k, we have X=2k, Y= 7k and Z=8k.
Then if X, Y-12, Z form a Geometric sequence, it means X/Y-12=Y-12/Z which is the same as 2k/7k-12=7k-12/8k if we cross multply, we get
16k²= 49k²-168k +144
33k²-168k+144 =0 solving for k
k = 4 or 1.091 if we take the whole number to find the values of X,Y and z,
X= 8, Y= 28 and Z=32

Answer:
A rectangular prism in which BA = 20 and h = 6 has a volume of 120 units3; therefore, Shannon is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the area of the base of the rectangular pyramid
we know that
The volume of the rectangular pyramid is equal to

where
B is the area of the base
H is the height of the pyramid
we have


substitute and solve for B



step 2
Find the volume of the rectangular prism with the same base area and height
we know that
The volume of the rectangular prism is equal to

we have


substitute

therefore
The rectangular prism has a volume that is three times the size of the given rectangular pyramid. Shannon is correct
