The correct Answer is:
To find the first five terms of the sequence defined by the nth term \( a_n = (-1)^{n-1} \cdot 5^{n+1} \), we will substitute values of \( n \) from 1 to 5 into the formula. ### Step-by-step solution: 1. **Calculate \( a_1 \)**: \[ a_1 = (-1)^{1-1} \cdot 5^{1+1} = (-1)^0 \cdot 5^2 = 1 \cdot 25 = 25 \] 2. **Calculate \( a_2 \)**: \[ a_2 = (-1)^{2-1} \cdot 5^{2+1} = (-1)^1 \cdot 5^3 = -1 \cdot 125 = -125 \] 3. **Calculate \( a_3 \)**: \[ a_3 = (-1)^{3-1} \cdot 5^{3+1} = (-1)^2 \cdot 5^4 = 1 \cdot 625 = 625 \] 4. **Calculate \( a_4 \)**: \[ a_4 = (-1)^{4-1} \cdot 5^{4+1} = (-1)^3 \cdot 5^5 = -1 \cdot 3125 = -3125 \] 5. **Calculate \( a_5 \)**: \[ a_5 = (-1)^{5-1} \cdot 5^{5+1} = (-1)^4 \cdot 5^6 = 1 \cdot 15625 = 15625 \] ### Summary of the first five terms: - \( a_1 = 25 \) - \( a_2 = -125 \) - \( a_3 = 625 \) - \( a_4 = -3125 \) - \( a_5 = 15625 \) Thus, the first five terms of the sequence are: \[ 25, -125, 625, -3125, 15625 \]
