A(n) = a1 * r^(n-1)
a1 = first term = -8
r = common ratio = 5

a(2) = -8 * 5^(2-1)
a(2) = -8 * 5^1
a(2) = -40

a(3) = -8 * 5^(3 - 1)
a(3) = -8 * 5^2
a(3) = -8 * 25
a(3) = -200

a(4) = -8 * 5^(4 - 1)
a(4) = -8 * 5^3
a(4) = -8 * 125
a(4) = -1000

a(5) = -8 * 5^(5 - 1)
a(5) = -8 * 5^4
a(5) = -8 * 625
a(5) = -5000

a(6) = -8 * 5^(6-1)
a(6) = -8 * 5^5
a(6) = -8 * 3125
a(6) = -25,000

the first 6 terms are : -8, -40, -200, -1000,  -5000, -25,000

Why is the polynomial, 4x^2y + 5xy classified as a 3rd degree binomial?
Ronch [10]
The polynomial has two terms. The exponent of the first term is two. The exponent of the second term would be 1 because 5xy^1 is equal to 5xy.
