Answer:

d. converges, -25

Step-by-step explanation:

An infinite geometric series converges if the absolute value of the common ratio is less than 1.

Here, the common ratio is 4/5:

| 4/5 | = 4/5 < 1

So the series converges.  The sum of an infinite geometric series is:

S = a₁ / (1 − r)

where a₁ is the first term and r is the common ratio.

Here, a₁ = -5 and r = 4/5:

S = -5 / (1 − 4/5)

S = -25
