Question

–2, –12, –72, –432, …

A. –1,728, –6,912, –27,648
B. –1,728, –10,368, –62,208
C. –2,592, –10,368, –41,472
D. –2,592, –15,552, –93,312

Answer 1

To find the next term in the sequence, we are multiplying each term by $-6$. Therefore, the next three terms are $$-432\times (-6) = 2,\!592$$$$2,\!592\times (-6)=-15,\!552$$$$-15,\!552\times (-6)=93,\!312$$The answer is $\boxed{\textbf{(D) }-2,\!592, -15,\!552, -93,\!312}.$
