What’s the common ratio of the geometric sequence?
-4,-8,-16

Answer 1

Hello! :)

A geometric sequence is a sequence where you use multiplication or division to get to the next term.

-4, -8, -16...

Here, we multiply every number by 2. So the common ratio is 2.

Hope it helps, and let me know if you have any queries.

Answer:

The answer is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the common ratio, simply dividing each number in the sequence from the number preceding it.

-4, -8, -16

-16 ÷ -8 = 2

- 8 ÷ -4 = 2
