Answer:

The Recursive Formula for the sequence is:

\:a_n=\frac{1}{5}\left(a_{n-1}\right)     ; a₁ = 125

Hence, option D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a geometric sequence has a constant ratio 'r'.

The formula for the nth term of the geometric sequence is

a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}

where

aₙ is the nth term of the sequence

a₁ is the first term of the sequence

r is the common ratio

We are given the explicit formula for the geometric sequence such as:

a_n=125\left(\frac{1}{5}\right)^{n-1}

comparing with the nth term of the sequence, we get

a₁ = 125

r = 1/5

Recursive Formula:

We already know that

  • a₁ = 125
  • r = 1/5

We know that each successive term in the geometric sequence is 'r' times the previous term where 'r' is the common ratio.

i.e.

a_n=ra_{n-1}

Thus, substituting r = 1/5

\:a_n=\frac{1}{5}\left(a_{n-1}\right)  

and a₁ = 125.

Therefore, the Recursive Formula for the sequence is:

\:a_n=\frac{1}{5}\left(a_{n-1}\right)     ; a₁ = 125

Hence, option D is correct.

Yanka [14]

Answer:

\frac{3}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

=  \frac{3}{4}  \times  \frac{2}{5}

=  \frac{3 \times 2}{4 \times 5}

=  \frac{6}{20}

=  \frac{6 \div 2}{20 \div 2}

=  \frac{3}{10}
