Question

What is the next term in the following sequence? 54, -18, 6, ...

Answer 1

-2

Explanation:

54 divided by -18 is -3, and to make sure this is an arithmetic sequence, we will do -18 divided by 6, which once again is -3. Therefore we can divide 6 by -3 which gives us -2, because /-3 is the rate of change.

Answer 2

i’m pretty sure the answer would be -2

54 divided by -3 is -18 and -18 divided by -3 is 6. i think the rule is dividing by -3
