5 $1546
The values follow a geometric sequence. What is the common ratio of the sequence?

Enter your answer as a decimal rounded to two decimal places, if necessary, like this: 42.53

The common ratio of the sequence is 1.02

Explanation:

The common difference of the geometric sequence is the ratio of dividing the term by the previous term.

Now, we shall divide the terms.

Dividing 1428 and 1457, we get,

Dividing 1457 and 1486, we get,

Dividing 1486 and 1516, we get,

Dividing 1516 and 1546, we get,

Thus, the common ratio of the sequence is 1.02

parallel and congruent

step-by-step explanation:

the movement of translation is linear.   these have the same translation because you are using the same rule for each point of the triangle so you will see the same slope being used to get from a point on the triangle to its image.

same slope!   you should think parallel when you see those 2 word together (well unless it's the same line but it can't be because we are coming from different points here)

congruent! because each point is being moved the same distance.
