Given:

The sequence is:

17,-\dfrac{17}{8},\dfrac{17}{27},-\dfrac{17}{64},\dfrac{17}{125},...

To find:

The formula for the nth term in the given sequence.

Solution:

We have,

17,-\dfrac{17}{8},\dfrac{17}{27},-\dfrac{17}{64},\dfrac{17}{125},...

The given sequence can be written as

\dfrac{17}{1^3},-\dfrac{17}{2^3},\dfrac{17}{3^3},-\dfrac{17}{4^3},\dfrac{17}{5^3},...

The sign are alternative and the absolute value of each term can be defined by the expression \dfrac{17}{n^3}, where n is a natural number.

So, the required formula is:

a_n=(-1)^{n+1}\dfrac{17}{n^3}

Therefore, the formula for nth term in the given sequence is a_n=(-1)^{n+1}\dfrac{17}{n^3}.
