The first term of this geometric sequence is equal to: A. -2916.
How to calculate the 7th term of a geometric sequence?
Mathematically, a geometric sequence is given by this expression:
[tex]a_n =a_1r^{n-1}[/tex]
Where:
- a is the first term of a geometric sequence.
Based on the geometric sequence, the first term is equal to -4. Also, the common ratio is given by:
r = 12/-4
r = -3.
For the 7th term, we have:
a₇ = -4 × (-3)⁷⁻¹
a₇ = -4 × (-3)⁶
a₇ = -4 × 729
a₇ = -2916.
