Answer:
0.18181818181
Step-by-step explanation:
The first term and common ratio for the geometric sequence are -3 and 5 respectively
<h3>Geometric sequence</h3>
This are sequence that increases exponentially. The nth term of the sequence is given as:
Tn = ar^n-1
where;
a is the first term
r is the common ratio
n is the number of terms
ar = -15
ar^3 = -375
Divide
r^2 = 375/15
r^2 = 25
r = 5
Determine the first term
a= -15/r
a = -15/5
a = -3
Hence the first term and common ratio for the geometric sequence are -3 and 5 respectively
