-It looks like each term is equal to the prior term times -5.The terms get larger and larger in absolute value.Both the sequence of terms and the sum of them will diverge.They dont get close to any limit.-It is not clear what the series is, but a condition for a sequence to be convergent is that the difference between successive elements go to zero.......
Thanks! Determine whether the series -20+100+-500 is convergent or divergent.
