Respuesta :

to find the common ratio (r) divide the second term by the first term
7 / 4 = 1.75 <==

Answer:

r ( common ratio) = 1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : geometric sequence 4, 7, 12.25, 21.4375.

To find : What is the r value .

Solution : We have given

Geometric sequence 4, 7, 12.25, 21.4375.

r ( common ratio) = [tex]\frac{second\ term}{first\ term}[/tex].

r ( common ratio) = [tex]\frac{7}{4}[/tex] = 1.75

r ( common ratio) = [tex]\frac{12.25}{7}[/tex] = 1.75

Therefore, r ( common ratio) = 1.75
