Answer:
2, 10, 50, 250
Step-by-step explanation:
For geometric sequences, multiply the previous term by the common ratio.
Using the formula for geometric sequences [tex]a_{n} =ar^{n-1}[/tex] , with [tex]a_{n}[/tex] being the nth term (so n=4 for the fourth term), a being the first term, and r being the common ratio.
Our starting term is 2. So that is automatically the first term of the four.
Second term:
[tex]a_{2} =2*5^{2-1}=2*5^1=2*5=10[/tex]
Third term:
[tex]a_{3} =2*5^{3-1}=2*5^2=2*25=50[/tex]
Fourth term:
[tex]a_{4} =2*5^{4-1}=2*5^3=2*5*5*5=10*25=250[/tex]
