OpenStudy (cwrw238):

first find common ratio this = -3 /-1 the 8th term is ar^(n-1) where a = first term (-1), r = common ratio and n = 8

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

* sorry common ratio = 3 /-1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\large t_n = a.r^{n-1}\] Here put r = 8, a = -1 and r = -3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry put n = 8 a = -1 and r = -3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes you are right.. But there is a little mistake I think..

OpenStudy (cwrw238):
