A(n) = a₁.(r)ⁿ⁻¹, where a₁ = 1st term, r= common ratio and n, the rank
In the formula given a₁ = 5, r = 3/2 and n = 6 (we have to find the 6th term value).
a₆ = 5.(3/2)⁶⁻¹ = 5.(3/2)⁵ = 1215/32 (answer C)
You need to factor the numerator and denominator...
(2x^2+4x-2x-4)/(2x^2-2x-2x+2)
(2x(x+2)-2(x+2))/(2x(x-1)-2(x-1))
((2x-2)(x+2))/((2x-2)(x-1)) so the (2x-2)s cancel out leaving
(x+2)/(x-1)
