Answer:

common ratio: -1.5

Explanation:

You want the common difference or ratio for the sequence ...

-24, 36, -54, 81, -121.5, ...

Common ratio

The signs alternate, so the sequence will not have a common difference.

The common ratio is the ratio of any pair of sequential terms:

r = 36/-24 = -1.5

The common ratio is -1.5.
