b. The common difference is 0.50
c. The common ratio is 0.98
d. The common ratio is 1.1

Respuesta :

Answer:

d. The common ratio is 1.1

Step-by-step explanation:

To see if the data has a common ratio or common difference, we have to see if the division between them is equal(common ratio), or if the difference between them is equal(common difference).

In this case, since [tex]60.5 - 55 \neq 55 - 50[/tex], it has a common ratio.

To find it, we divide consecutive terms. For example:

[tex]\frac{55}{50} = 1.1[/tex]

So the correct answer is:

d. The common ratio is 1.1
