Answer:  First three terms are 1/25, 1/5, and 1 in that order.

===========================================================

Explanation:

The fifth term is 25, which makes the fourth term to be 25*(1/5) = 5. We multiply any term by the reciprocal of the common ratio to move back to the previous term.

The third term is 5*(1/5) = 1. The second term is 1*(1/5) = 1/5. The first term is (1/5)*(1/5) = 1/25

Therefore, the first five terms are:

1/25, 1/5, 1, 5, 25

As we move from left to right, we multiply each term by 5. Going in reverse, we multiply by 1/5.

Answer:

y-6 = -7x + 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope

(-8 - 6)/(5-3)

-14/2 = -7

Now find the formula

y-6=-7(x - 3)

y-6 = -7x + 21

Another way to write it is

y= -7x + 27
