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.

Help please!!!!!!!!!!

Answer:

H. 1/9.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is calculated by solving for πr^2.

The smallest circle has an area of π1^2 = π * 1 = π.

The middle ring will then have an area of π2^2 - π = π * 4 - π = 4π - π = 3π.

The largest ring will then have an area of π3^{2} - π2^{2} = 9π - 4π = 5π.

5π + 3π + π = 9π

So, the probability of hitting the innermost circle will be π / 9π = 1 / 9.

Your answer is H. 1/9.

Hope this helps!
