Answer:

Please see the attachment for graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: We are given geometric sequence.

\(\dfrac{1}{32}, \dfrac{1}{8}, \dfrac{1}{2}, 2, 8\)

We need to graph the geometric sequence.

First we find the nth term of GP or general term.

\(a_n=ar^{n-1}\)

where, \(a=\dfrac{1}{32}\) , r=4

\(a_n=\dfrac{1}{32}(4)^{n-1}\)

Now we write as function n-> x

\(f(x)=\dfrac{1}{32}(4)^{x-1}\)

We make table x and y

   x      y

   1       \(\dfrac{1}{32}\)

   2       \(\dfrac{1}{8}\)

   3       \(\dfrac{1}{2}\)

   4       \(2\)

   5       \(8\)

Plot the point on graph and join the points
