Question

b(n)=1(−2)^n-1

What is the fourth term in the sequence?

Answer 1

Answer:

-8

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want to find the fourth term in the sequence, or b(4), then you just plug in the value 4 for n, resulting in

b(4)=1(-2)^(4-1).

Simplifying, we get

b(4)=1(-2)^3

     =1(-2*-2*-2)

     =1(-8)

     =-8
