Answer: $a_n=2(5)^{n-2}$

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The explicit rule for a geometric sequence is: $a_n=a_1(r)^{n-1}\quad \text{where}\ a_1\ \text{is the first term and r is the ratio}$

The information provided is: a₁ = $\dfrac{2}{5}$ and r = 5

$a_n=\dfrac{2}{5}(5)^{n - 1}\\\\.\quad = 2(5)^{n-2}$
