@zordoloom what do I do?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it B an=8(-1)n-1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got that..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Shadowys give me your opinion

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm sorry, which is the exponential number?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm not sure..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay, since a general form of any term in a geometric sequence is \[a_n = ar^{n-1}\] placing a=1, r=-8/1, ...you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got C an= 1(-8)n - 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it right? @Shadowys

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is it right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@zordoloom I got C.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hello ?? @Shadowys
