Question 5 • Precalculus

Which of the following is a geometric series?

Answer
A
7 plus 21 plus 35 plus 45
B
6 plus 13 plus 20 plus 27
C
14 plus 21 plus 28 plus 35
D
2 plus 14 plus 98 plus 686

Explanation

A geometric series has terms formed by multiplying each term by the same ratio. In D, each term is multiplied by 7: 2 × 7 = 14, 14 × 7 = 98, and 98 × 7 = 686. The other choices do not have a constant ratio between consecutive terms.
