F2088nd the next three terms of the sequence. -2, -12, -72, 432.

Possibilities are:

1. -1728 -6912 -27,648
2. -1728 -10,368 -62,208
3. -2592 -10,368 -41,472
4. -2,592 -15,552 -93,312
I have tried multiplying positive numbers times the negative but can't make the numbers match any of
the options

I strongly suspect they mean:
-2, -12, -72, -432

If my suspicion is correct you have a geometric sequence with a = -2 and r = 6

the next terms are
-2 * 6^4
-2 * 6^5
-2 * 6^6
or
-2592
-15552
-93312
