The common ratio of the geometric sequence -14,-84,-504

A common ratio is basically a ratio of next sequence and the sequence you want

To find a common ratio of geometric sequence, we usually define 'r' as common ratio.

For example, I want to focus on -14 and the next sequence would be -84.

Hence,

Thus, r is 6 because both numerator and denominator are negative. negative divides negative = positive.

Or you want to choose -84, then the next sequence would be -504.

Then r would still be 6. Since both ways have r as 6 and this proves that the sequence is geometric.

Hence, the common ratio is 6.

i believe that the answer is

b. y-1=-2(x-4)

hope this !
