Common ratio is -2
next 3 terms :
32 * -2 = -64
-64 * -2 = 128
128 * -2 = -256
answer is D
An=Asub1+d(n-1)
Asub5= -5+½(4)
=-5+7
=2
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Two lines are given to us which are perpendicular to each other and we need to find out the value of a . The given equations are ,
Step 1 : <u>Conver</u><u>t</u><u> </u><u>the </u><u>equations</u><u> in</u><u> </u><u>slope</u><u> intercept</u><u> form</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> the</u><u> line</u><u> </u><u>.</u>
and ,
Step 2: <u>Find </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>slope</u><u> of</u><u> the</u><u> </u><u>lines </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>
Now we know that the product of slope of two perpendicular lines is -1. Therefore , from Slope Intercept Form of the line we can say that the slope of first line is ,
And the slope of the second line is ,
Step 3: <u>Multiply</u><u> </u><u>the </u><u>slopes </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>
Multiply ,
Multiply both sides by a ,
Divide both sides by -1 ,
<u>Hence </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>value</u><u> of</u><u> a</u><u> </u><u>is </u><u>9</u><u> </u><u>.</u>
