Respuesta :
an=a1(r)^(n-1)
a1=first term
r=common ratio
so
firs term is -1
each is double the prevoius
r=2
an=-1(2)^n-1
8th term
a8=-1(2)^(8-1)
a8=-1(2)^7
a8=-1(128)
a8=-128
the 8th term is -128

Geometric sequence formula gn = g1 (r)^n - 1
To find the ratio you divide g2 by g1
G1 = first number in the series
To find g8 you just plug 8 instead of n
g8 = g1 (r)^8 - 1
g8 = -1 (2)^8 - 1
g8 = -128
