5,25,125 find 10th term

9765625

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common ratio between consecutive terms , that is

r = 25 ÷ 5 = 125 ÷ 25 = 5

This indicates the sequence is geometric with n th term

= a₁

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

Here a₁ = 5 and r = 5 , then

a₁₀ = 5 × = 5 × 1953125 = 9765625

see explanation

step-by-step explanation:

since the sequence is geometric there is a common ratio r between consecutive terms, that is

r = 4 ÷ - 2 = - 2

r = - 8 ÷ 4 = - 2

r = 16 ÷ 8 = - 2

the next term - 13 must be incorrect as it should be - 32 for the sequence to be geometric.

the first 4 terms are therefore geometric with common ratio r = - 2
