<u>ANSWER</u>
The common ratio is -3.
<u>EXPLANATION</u>
In general, the common ratio of a Geometric Sequence is given by:

We can find the common ratio using any two consecutive terms of the geometric sequence by dividing the subsequent term by the previous term.
The given sequence is -2,6,-18,54
Using the first two terms the common ratio is

We could also used the second and third terms to get

and so on and so forth.
Therefore the common ratio is -3.
Answer:
A.The data should be treated as paired samples. Each pair consists of an hour in which the productivity of the two workers is compared.
Explanation:
If the mean productivity of two workers is the same.
For a random selection of 30 hours in the past month, the manager compares the number of items produced by each worker in that hour.
There are two samples and the productivity of the two men is paired for each hour.
Answer:
18b+12
Step-by-step explanation:
6x3=18,6x2=12 so it's 18b(keep the variable)+12
Answer:
D) y = -1/2x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Points on the graph: (0, 4) and (8, 0)
Slope:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(0 - 4)/(8-0)
m= -4/8
m = -1/2
Slope-intercept:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 4 = -1/2(x - 0)
y - 4 = -1/2x
y = -1/2x + 4
