Let's first work out the pattern. Since it's an geometric progression, we can find the sum to n terms of the pattern.

S_n = \frac{a(r^n - 1)}{r - 1}
S_n = \frac{9((-2)^n - 1)}{-3}
S_n = -3((-2)^n - 1)

Now that we've developed our geometric progression, we can start to add sigma notation.

k
∑(-3[(-2)^n - 1])
n = 1
