Delaney has $28.00 and buys a shirt for 14.00. Delaney used the equation 14x = 28 to model her scenario, where x represents the

amount of money she has left.
After solving her equation, Delaney says the solution x = 2, means that she has $2.00 left. Is she CORRECT? Why or why not?

She is incorrect because 14 multiplied by 2 equals 28, which means she wouldn’t have any money left over.

What is the common ratio of the sequence?<br> -2,6,-18,54
aivan3 [116]

<u>ANSWER</u>

The common ratio is -3.

<u>EXPLANATION</u>

In general, the common ratio of a Geometric Sequence is given by:

r = \frac{a_{n+1}}{a_{n}}

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

r =  \frac{6}{ - 2}  =  - 3

We could also used the second and third terms to get

r =  \frac{ - 18}{6}  =  - 3

and so on and so forth.

Therefore the common ratio is -3.
