1/8 of all=mystery
mystery=3
'of' means multiply
therefor
1/8 times all=3
multiply both sides by 8/1 to clear fracion
all=24
This is a geometric sequence with first term 1 and common ratio -1/2. r=-1/2.
a(n) = a(1)*(r)^(n-1).
Check: If n=2 our formula must return -1/2. Does it?
a(2) = 1(-1/2)^(2-1) = (-1/2)^1 = - 1/2. Yes.
a(3) should be 1/4. Is it? a(3) = (-1/2)^(3-1) = 1/4 Yes.
Then a(8) = (-1/2)^(8-1) = (-1/2)^7 = -1 / 2^7 = -1/128 (answer)
