    r = - 3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    to find r divide the 2nd term by the first:

    9 / - 3 = - 3

    to check if this is the same ratio for each number divide it by the ratio to get the number before it:

    -27 / - 3 = 9

    81 / - 3 = 27

    to find the next three terms multiply the last number by the ratio then repeat

    (81) (-3) = - 243

    (-243) (-3) = 729

    (729) (-3) = - 2187
