Answer:

-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.

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