## SmokeysTheName Is the sequence geometric? If so, identify the common ratio. ((PICTURE BELOW)) one year ago one year ago

1. SmokeysTheName

2. MosbergShotty

1/3

3. SmokeysTheName

can you explain how you got that?

4. MosbergShotty

and I suppose it could be geometric

5. MosbergShotty

I got that by seeing what all of them could be divided by. 2/9 is just 1/3 multiplied by 2 4/27 is just 1/3 multiplied by 4 ect...

6. PeterPan

Something is amiss.... You might notice that the numerators just keep doubling, while the denominators keep tripling :D

7. SmokeysTheName

yes; 2/3 yes; 2/9 yes; 1/6 not geometric this is what i have to choose from

8. MosbergShotty

What do you suggest?

9. MosbergShotty

I guess I was wrong, sorry bout that.

10. PeterPan

Well, what do you multiply to a fraction to double its numerator and triple its denominator? $\frac{2}{3}$ right?

11. SmokeysTheName

you guys are confusing me.

12. MosbergShotty

Just hang in there

13. terenzreignz

Very good @PeterPan It looks like someone's finally learned not to keep doing these things one at a time anymore :P @SmokeysTheName If you're up to it, divide the second term by the first term, and divide the third term by the second term. You should arrive at the common ratio

14. SmokeysTheName

2/3... lolol :P

15. PeterPan

I was right :P

16. terenzreignz

Oh, grow up :P

17. terenzreignz

@SmokeysTheName PATTERNS! PATTERNS! PATTERNS!

18. SmokeysTheName

@terenzreignz I HATE PATTERNS!

19. SmokeysTheName

:P

20. terenzreignz

Patterns hate you.

21. SmokeysTheName
