Exercise 35 Page 311

Check if - 2 is the common ratio.

The common ratio is - 12, not - 2. The next three terms are - 12, 14, and - 18.

Practice makes perfect

We are given a geometric sequence and asked to find and correct the error. Let's take a look.

Examining the pattern, we see that the common ratio is - 12, not - 2. Now, using that information let's find the next three terms of the sequence.

The next three terms are - 12, 14, and - 18.
