57 is the answer to your question
I would say that (d) is the correct answer because the section between x=4 and x=6 is not linear but exponential but it is still increasing. The section between x=1 and x=3 however is linear and therefore his answer is incorrect.
The sum of the first 10 terms of the sequence 4, -12, 36, -144 is -59058
The given geometric sequence is:
4, -12, 36, -144
The first term, a = 4
The common ratio,
Since we are looking for the sum of the first 10 terms
The number of terms, n = 10
The sum of the first n terms of a geometric sequence is given as:
The sum of the first 10 terms of the sequence 4, -12, 36, -144 is -59058
