We know that the midpoint is the a point in the center of the line (r). This means that from the midpoint to the endpoint (qr) is half the length of the overall line. This means that 5.7 (the length of qr) units is half the length of the line. Two halves make a whole so 5.7 × 2 = 11.4 units as the length of the entire line qs.
Hope this helps!
I did 12x9 and I believe it’s A but if I’m wrong I apologize but it should be right !
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The nth term of a geometric progression is
= a₁
where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio
Given a₅ = 162 and a₈ = 4374 , then
a₁
= 162 → (1)
a₁
= 4374 → (2)
Divide (2) by (1)
= 
r³ = 27
r =
= 3
Substitute r = 3 into (1) and solve for a₁
a₁
= 162
81a₁ = 162
a₁ =
= 2
Then
a₂ = a₁ × 3 = 2 × 3 = 6
a₃ = a₂ × 3 = 6 × 3 = 18
The first 3 terms are 2, 6, 18
(ii)
The sum to n terms of a geometric progression is
=
, then
= 
= 
= 59049 - 1
= 59048
