an = a1r^(n-1)
a5 = a1 r^(5-1)
-6 =a1 r^4
a2 = a1 r^(2-1)
-48 = a1 r
divide
-6 =a1 r^4
---------------- yields 1/8 = r^3 take the cube root or each side
-48 = a1 r 1/2 = r
an = a1r^(n-1)
an = a1 (1/2)^ (n-1)
-48 = a1 (1/2) ^1
divide by 1/2
-96 = a1
an = -96 (1/2)^ (n-1)
the sum
Sn = a1[(r^n - 1/(r - 1)]
S18 = -96 [( (1/2) ^17 -1/ (1/2 -1)]
=-96 [ (1/2) ^ 17 -1 /-1/2]
= 192 * [-131071/131072]
approximately -192

Answer:
D) 0 = 2(x + 5)(x + 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Which of the following quadratic equations has no solution?
We have to solve the Quadratic equation for all the options in other to get a positive value as a solution for x.
A) 0 = −2(x − 5)2 + 3
0 = -2(x - 5) × 5
0 = (-2x + 10) × 5
0 = -10x + 50
10x = 50
x = 50/10
x = 5
Option A has a solution of 5
B) 0 = −2(x − 5)(x + 3)
Take each of the factors and equate them to zero
-2 = 0
= 0
x - 5 = 0
x = 5
x + 3 = 0
x = -3
Option B has a solution by one of its factors as a positive value of 5
C) 0 = 2(x − 5)2 + 3
0 = 2(x - 5) × 5
0 = (2x -10) × 5
0 = 10x -50
-10x = -50
x = -50/-10
x = 5
Option C has a solution of 5
D) 0 = 2(x + 5)(x + 3)
Take each of the factors and equate to zero
0 = 2
= 0
x + 5 = 0
x = -5
x + 3 = 0
x = -3
For option D, all the values of x are 0, or negative values of -5 and -3.
Therefore the Quadratic Equation for option D has no solution.
