Answer:

a₅ = 80 , a_{n} = 5(2)^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

to find a term in the geometric sequence multiply the previous term by r

a₁ = 5

a₂ = a₁ × 2 = 5 × 2 = 10

a₃ = a₂ × 2 = 10 × 2 = 20

a₄ = a₃ × 2 = 20 × 2 = 40

a₅ = a₄ × 2 = 40 × 2 = 80

the nth term of a geometric sequence is

a_{n} = a₁ (r)^{n-1}

here a₁ = 5 and r = 2 , then

a_{n} = 5 (2)^{n-1}
