Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

You will need to get rid of the parenthesis to make the problem easier for you to work with. Since there is a number in front of the parenthesis, you will need to distribute that to both numbers in the parenthesis.

For this example, you would multiply the 9 to both the x and -1, and then 8 to both 2x and 2.

we can check if a given sequence is geometric or not by checking the terms present in it ,

Let us find ratio of each term with it's previous term

if that ratio comes out same for every two consecutive terms then it is a geometric sequence , otherwise it is not geometric sequence .

Let us work on first one : given is : -1,1,-1,1.............

second term/ first term = 1/-1 = -1

third term/ second term = -1/1 = -1

fourth term / third term = 1/-1 = -1

fifth term/ fourth term = -1/1 = -1

because that ratio is same so it is a geometric sequence .

* let us now work with second sequence .

eE

second term/ first term = -6/-2 = 3

third term/ second term = -18/ -6 = 3

fourth term / third term = -54 / -18 = 3

hence this is also geometric sequence .

Answer : both are geometric sequence .

Answer:

PQ = 20

QR = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

PQ^2 = 16^2 + 12^2

PQ^2 = 400

PQ = √400 = 20

QR^2 = 12^2+9^2

QR^2 = 225

QR = √225 = 15
