Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{{\sf \left \{ {{t_1 = -10} \atop {t_n = -2t_{n-1}}} \right. }}[/tex]

Explanation:

geometric sequence: [tex]\sf a_n = a_{n-1} \ x \ r[/tex]   where "r" is common ratio

  • [tex]\sf a_1 =a[/tex]

Find "r" = second term ÷ first term = 20  ÷ -10 = -2

Recursive rule:

[tex]\boxed{\sf t_n = r(t_{n-1})}[/tex]

[tex]\large\boxed{{\sf \left \{ {{t_1 = -10} \atop {t_n = -2t_{n-1}}} \right. }}[/tex]
