Question

What is the common ratio of the geometric sequence below ?
-96,48,-24,12,-6... ​

Answer 1

-1/2 or b on edge

Explanation:

Answer 2

r = -
`(1)/(2)`

Explanation:

The common ratio r is the ratio between consecutive terms in the sequence.

r =
`(48)/(-96)` =
`(-24)/(48)` =
`(12)/(-24)` =
`(-6)/(12)` = -
`(1)/(2)`
