Which of the following statements about financial growth factors using the geometric mean is untrue?

a.
a growth factor less than 1 indicates negative growth.

b.
a growth factor greater than 0 indicates positive growth.

c.
a growth factor greater than 2 indicates more than 100 percent growth.

d.
the growth factor cannot be less than zero.

a is the right answer

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
