Sagot :

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of a geometric progression can be determined by using the formula:

Tn=arn−1

where: a = first term and r = common ratio

Substitute the given values of first term and common ratio into the formula:

Tn=arn−1

T5=(40)(0.5)5−1

T5=(40)(0.5)4

T5=(40)(0.0625)

T5=2.5
