The answer to that problem is 4. 4*4*4*4=(4*4)*(4*4)=16*16=256. I hope this helped!
Let x be the value of the third term.
Since it's a geometric sequence, then:
Third term/Second term = Fourth term/Third term
x/20 = 11.25/x
Cross multiplication:
x^2 = 225
x = 15
So since the ratio is constant, then it is
x/20 = 15/20 = 3/4
So the common ratio is 3/4 or 0.75.

See explanations below
Explanation:
Vertex of a graph is the lowest point on the curve. The vertex occurs at (1.75, -2.5)
The axis of symmetry is the point on the x axis of the line that cuts through the minimum point. The axis of symmetry occurs at x = 1.75
x intercept is the point where the curve cuts the x axis. The x intercept occurs at x = 0 and x = 2.5
To get the minimum, we will use the formula;
c - b^2/4a
The equation of the curve is expressed as;
(x-0)(x-2.5)
= x (x-2.5)
= x^2 - 2.5x
a = 1, b = -2.5, c = 0
minimum = 0 - (-2.5)^2/4(1)
minimum = -6.25/4
minimum = -1.5625
Minimum value occurs at the base of the parabola. The minimum value of the function is -2.5
y intercept is the point where the curve cuts the y axis. The y-intercept occurs at y = 0.
Total - book $ - magazine $
Which is equal to:
Total + (-book $) + (-magazine $)
$35 + (-$7) + (-$5)
ANSWER: (C) $35 + (-$7) + (-$5)
