Phil smith is a car salesman. last week his total sales amounted to $27,650.00 and he received 1,382.50 in commission. what is his rate of commission?

see explanation

step-by-step explanation:

since the sequence is geometric there is a common ratio r between consecutive terms, that is

r = 4 ÷ - 2 = - 2

r = - 8 ÷ 4 = - 2

r = 16 ÷ 8 = - 2

the next term - 13 must be incorrect as it should be - 32 for the sequence to be geometric.

the first 4 terms are therefore geometric with common ratio r = - 2

8

step-by-step explanation:

just put √(2) * √(32) into a calculator. that will make the answer be 8.
