Answer:

Choice A

Step-by-step explanation:

a=-6           (1st term)

ar=             (2nd term)

ar^2=         (3rd term)

ar^3           (4th term)

ar^4=         (5th term)

ar^5=-1458 (6th term)

a=-6 so -6r^5=-1458

divide both sides by -6 giving r^5=243 so to obtain r you do the fifth root of 243 which is 3.

The common ratio is 3.

so ar=6(-3)=-18 (2nd term)

Only choice A fits this.
