Please help me. Any help is appreciated

Answer 1

B. 140

Explanation:

Basically, what this problem is saying is that each term x is 1.5 times the value of the previous term.

Now, we can set up a few equations

48=1.5a

c=1.5(48)

d=1.5c

Solving the first one gives us a=32

Solving the second one gives us c=72

Solving the third one gives us d=108

Thus, a+d=32+108=140
