Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
First term (a) = 3
Second term = - 6
third term = 12
Fourth term = - 24
We can obtain the common ratio of the series using the relation :
(2nd term/ 1st term) = (3rd term/2nd term) = (4th term/ 3rd term) =....
(-6/3) = (12/-6) = (-24/12)
-2 = - 2 = - 2

<em>The maximum number of watches that Samantha come by with her savings is </em><em>10</em><em>.</em>
<u>Solution-</u>
The amount of money Samantha has in her savings account = $1150
She wants to buy shirts and watches.
Cost of one shirt = $84
Cost of each watch = $99
Let she can buy maximum of x watches, so the net price of the watches is $99x.
Then,
As the number of watches can not be in fraction, so at most she can buy 10 watches.
