Question

What is the common ratio of the geometric sequence below ? -96,48,-24,12,-6... ​

Answer 1

Answer:

r = - $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The common ratio r is the ratio between consecutive terms in the sequence.

r = $\frac{48}{-96}$ = $\frac{-24}{48}$ = $\frac{12}{-24}$ = $\frac{-6}{12}$ = - $\frac{1}{2}$
