A₂ = 6      a₄ = 54

a_{n}  =  q^{n-1}  *  a_{1} 

\left \{ {{ a_{2} = q^{2-1} * a_{1} } \atop { a_{4} = q^{4-1}* a_{1}  }} \right.   \\  \\  \left \{ {{6 = q *  a_{1} } \atop {54 =  q^{3} *  a_{1}  }} \right.   \\  \\   \left \{ {{  a_{1} = \frac{6}{q} } \atop {54 = q^{3} * \frac{6}{q}  }} \right.  \\  \\   \left \{ {{ a_{1}  =  \frac{6}{q} } \atop {54 =  q^{2} * 6 }} \right. 

\left \{ {{ a_{1} =  \frac{6}{q} } \atop { q^{2} =9}} \right.  \\  \\  \left \{ {{ a_{1} = \frac{6}{q} } \atop {q= \sqrt{9} }} \right. 
 
q = 3     q = -3

a₁ = 6/3 = 2   a₁ = 6/-3 = -2

The sign shows distances from a rest stop to the exits for different towns along a straight section of highway. The state depart
torisob [31]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

The exit for Freestone is built midway between Roseville and Edgewood,
therefore the distance from O to the new exit is
(1/2)*(33+55) = 44 mi.

Let x =  distance from Midtown to the new exit.
Because the distance from O to the new exit is equal to (x + 17), therefore
x + 17 = 44
x = 44 - 17 = 27 mi.

Answer:
When the new exit is built, the distance from the exit for Midtown to the exit for Freestone will be 27 miles.
