Question

The first two terms in a sequence are 3 and 15. What is the next value if this sequence is geometric?

Answer 1

Answer:

75

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometric means you should think common ratio (words like multiplication or division)

First term=3

Second term=15

What can you multiply to first to give you second term?

Please say 5! Yes 5! Why? Because 3*5=15.

So 5 is called the common ratio.  5 is the number that you will multiply to a term to find the very next term.

So the third term would be 15*5=75
