Answer:

[tex]5,~ -10,~ 20,~ -40[/tex]

.

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometric sequence

[tex]Un = ar^{n - 1}[/tex]

.

We know that

a = 5 and r = -2

.

So

[tex]U_1 = 5(-2)^{1 - 1} = 5(-2)^0 = 5[/tex]

[tex]U_2 = 5(-2)^{2 - 1} = 5(-2)^1 = -10[/tex]

[tex]U_3 = 5(-2)^{3 - 1} = 5(-2)^2 = 20[/tex]

[tex]U_4 = 5(-2)^{4 - 1} = 5(-2)^3 = -40[/tex]

.

Happy to help :)
