Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
A(n) = a₁.(r)ⁿ⁻¹, where a₁ = 1st term, r= common ratio and n, the rank
In the formula given a₁ = 5, r = 3/2 and n = 6 (we have to find the 6th term value).
a₆ = 5.(3/2)⁶⁻¹ = 5.(3/2)⁵ = 1215/32 (answer C)
As there are 81 tiles total, that makes your area 81. Being a square, that makes your area equation A=s^2. As you need a side, this makes your equation s=√A. Plugging in 81 as A, we get s=√81=9, so an edge has 9 tiles.
