Find the 9th term of the geometric sequence 5, -25, 125, ...

 1,953,125

This is one single value and it is just a bit under 2 million.

Or more accurately, it's a bit over 1.9 million.

Explanation:

Note that dividing any term by its previous term gets us the common ratio

The r value must stay the same the entire time, or else the sequence isn't geometric.

The nth term of any geometric sequence is a*(r)^(n-1). With the 'a' and 'r' values we found, we update that to 5(-5)^(n-1)

To verify that is the correct nth term expression, plug in various values of n to compare it with the given sequence.

If we tried n = 2 for instance, then we find the 2nd term is

5(-5)^(n-1) = 5(-5)^(2-1) = -25

which matches what your teacher gave you. I'll let you verify the other terms.

The last thing we need to do is plug in n = 9 and simplify

5(-5)^(n-1)

5(-5)^(9-1)

5(-5)^8

5(390625)

1,953,125  this is one single value (rather than 3 separate values)

the correct answer is b.

this is because an open circle means < or > & since the line goes left it is < -3.

the next one has a filled circle so it can only be ≥ or ≤ and since the line goes right from 1 it is ≥ 1

hope that

0.61 has 2 decimal places, so we put the decimal digits of 0.61, 61 over 1 followed by the number of zeroes equal to the number of decimal places, 

2:     61/1 = 61/100.
