Find the third term of the geometric sequence whose first term is 5 and who's common ratio is -1/4.

take the logarithm of both sides (the base of the log doesn't matter):

apply the exponent property - this says that :

distribute the log terms on both sides:

group like terms together:

divide through both sides by the coefficient on :

you can do some additional rewriting here using the properties of the logarithm to simplify things if you like:

slope= 1

y-inter slope= 0

x       y

o     0

1       1

2     2

ect.
