Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of the geometric sequence is

a_n=(-2)(5)^{n-1}

In general the nth term of a geometric sequence is

a_n=a_1(r)^{n-1}

By comparism;

r=5 is the common ratio of the sequence.

Or

a_1=(-2)(5)^{1-1}=-2

a_2=(-2)(5)^{2-1}=-10

Common ratio is

r=\frac{-10}{-2}=5

How do you you divide 67by6
Law Incorporation [45]
You first set it up as long division. 
Second you would find out how many times 6 goes into 67, so count by 6's until you get close 67.
Third once you get that number you write it on top of the long division and then you would subtract whatever that number is below which is 66 because 6 * 11= 66.
So then you would subtract 67 minus 66 which would be 1. Then go from there and you'll get your answer.

Hope this helps!
