For a hyperbola 
where
the directrix is the line
and the focus is at (0, c).
Here, we have c = 5, a² = 9, so b² = 5² - 9 = 16.
a = √9 = 3
b = √16 = 4
Your hyperbola's constants are ...
a = 3
b = 4
______
Please note that the equation of a hyperbola has a negative sign for one of the terms. The equation given in your problem statement is that of an ellipse.

So hmm is a geometric sequence, meaning, the next term is found by multiplying it by "something", namely the "common ratio"
now, if the next term is the product of the common ratio and the previous term, that means, if we divide the previous term by the next term, the quotient will then be the "common ratio", let's do that then
let's divide the 2nd term by the 1st term then
