You need to simplify it first.

Use distribution

y=mx+b
m=slope
your slope is -4 :)
a = 4 first term, r = ?, T10 = 100.
Tn = ar^n - 1 formula for g.p
T10 = 4r^ 10 - 1
100 = 4r^9
Divide both side by 4
100/4 = 4/4r^9
25 = r^9 take the 9th root of both side
9√25 = 9√r^9
r = 9√25
To find the nth term
Since Tn = ar^n - 1
The '4' marked in the cut-out must be its width, because it can't be the height ... the height of the cut-out must be 3. / / / The area of the entire big rectangle is 12 x 14 = 168. The area of the little cut-out is 4 x 3 = 12. The area left is 168 - 12 = 154 ./ / / By the way ... if you're not getting many answers, it's because your drawings are unreadable. Put away the big orange marker and use a ballpoint pen instead.
