Question

What is the recursive formula for this geometric sequence 6, -24, 96, -384,...

Answer 1

A one is six. Now, this can be used to work out any value in the geometric sequence

Answer 2

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The recursive formula allows us to calculate the next term in the sequence from the previous term.

The common ratio r = $\frac{-24}{6}$ = - 4

Thus multiplying any term by - 4 gives the next term, that is

$a_{n+1}$ = - 4 $a_{n}$ with a₁ = 6
