Which sentence is not a geometric progression? a) 1, 5, 25, 125 b) 4, 8, 16, 32 c) 3, 6, 9 12 d) 2, 6, 18, 54

c) 3, 6, 9 12  is NOT a geometric progression

Geometry sequences are series of numbers that have a constant ratio

or can be interpreted:

Each number is obtained by multiplying the previous number by a constant

The sequence can be:

a, ar, ar², ar³, ... etc.

Can be formulated

where:

a is the first term, and

r is the common ratio

So we have to see the series has the same ratio or not

a.

Keywords : a geometric sequence, the first term, the common ratio

The correct option is c.

Step-by-step explanation:

A geometric progression has common ratio. It means the ratio between any two constitutive terms are same.

(a)

The given sequence is

1, 5, 25, 125

It is a geometric progression because it has a common ratio, i.e., 5.

(b)

The given sequence is

4, 8, 16, 32

It is a geometric progression because it has a common ratio, i.e., 2.

(c)

The given sequence is

3, 6, 9 12

It is not a geometric progression. Therefore the correct option is c.

(d)

The given sequence is

2, 6, 18, 54

It is a geometric progression because it has a common ratio, i.e., 3.

in the attachment.   i didn't see your choices.   the word which means there is choices.

step-by-step explanation:

(x,y)

x tells you how much left or right you go from the origin

y tells you how much down or up you go from the origin

so for example (-3,2), you go left 3 and up twice. i denoted which of the ordered pairs is which in my graph.
