Determine the common ratio and find the next three terms of the geometric sequence. 8, -20, 50,

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The common ratio r of a geometric sequence is

r = = = .....

r = = = - 2.5

Multiplying each term by - 2.5 gives the next term

50 × - 2.5 = - 125

- 125 × - 2.5 = 312.5

312.5 × - 2.5 = - 781.25

The next 3 terms in the sequence are - 125, 312.5, - 781.25

the answer is d

step-by-step explanation:   we are given to write a proper fraction where the whole is divided into an even number of equal parts less than ten, and an odd number of those parts exist.

an even number less than 10 may be one of 2, 4, 6 or 8. so, the whole may be one of these four evens.

now, an odd number of these parts must exist, so the numerator must be an odd number, one of 1, 3, 5 or 7. it cannot be 9 because then the fraction will become improper.

thus, our fraction may be one of the following
