29 2 and 1 are the answers
Answer:
x = 4, -2 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
factors:
(2x + 5) (x - 4)
set each factor equal to zero:
2x + 5 = 0
2x = -5
x = -5/2
x - 4 = 0
x = 4
Geometric sequences go up due to a common ratio. Here the common ratio can be worked out by dividing a term by its previous term e.g term 2 divided by term 1.

Therefore the common ratio is 6.
