Answer:

- 7500, 37500

Explanation:

Note the common ratio r between consecutive terms of the sequence, that is

r = 60 ÷ - 12 = - 300 ÷ 60 = 1500 ÷ - 300 = - 5

This indicates that the sequence is geometric with r = - 5

To obtain the next term in the sequence multiply the previous term by - 5

1500 × - 5 = - 7500

- 7500 × - 5 = 37500
