Given:


h(n)=-91\cdot\left(-(1)/(7)\right)^{\large{\,n-1}}

To find:

The recursive formula.

Solution:

We have,


h(n)=-91\cdot\left(-(1)/(7)\right)^{\large{\,n-1}}

It is in the form of explicate formula of a GP, .i.e.,
a_n=ar^(n-1).

Here,
a=-91 and
r=-(1)/(7).

The recursive formula of a GP is


a_n=a_(n-1)* r

Using this the recursive formula for given problem is


h(n)=h(n-1)* (-(1)/(7))

Therefore, the required recursive formula is
h(n)=h(n-1)* (-(1)/(7)).
