Given:

The geometric sequence is:

n              a_n

1                        -4

2                      20

3                     -100

To find:

The explicit formula and list any restrictions to the domain.

Solution:

The explicit formula of a geometric sequence is:

a_n=ar^{n-1}            ...(i)

Where, a is the first term, r is the common ratio and n\geq 1.

In the given sequence the first term is -4 and the second term is 20, so the common ratio is:

r=\dfrac{a_2}{a_1}

r=\dfrac{20}{-4}

r=-5

Putting a=-4,r=-5 in (i), we get

a_n=-4(-5)^{n-1} where n\geq 1

Therefore, the correct option is B.
