[tex]\boxed { \boxed {a_n=2(a_{n-1} + a_{n-2})}}[/tex]

[tex]a_{1} = - 2[/tex]

[tex]a_{2} = - 3[/tex]

[tex]a_{3}=2(a_{3-1} + a_{3-2}) = 2(a_{2} + a_{1}) = 2(-3 + (-2)) = -10[/tex]

[tex]a_{4}=2(a_{4-1} + a_{4-2}) = 2(a_{3} + a_{2}) = 2(-10 + (-3)) = -26[/tex]

[tex]a_{5}=2(a_{5-1} + a_{5-2}) = 2(a_{4} + a_{3}) = 2(-26 + (-10)) = -72[/tex]

Answer: –2, –3, –10, –26, –72  (Answer C)
