Answer:

C

Explanation:

the nth term of a geometric sequence is


a_(n) = a₁
(r)^(n-1)

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

the first term a₁ from the table below n = 1, a₂ below n = 2 and so on

here a₁ = 100 and r =
(a_(2) )/(a_(1) ) =
(-50)/(100) = -
(1)/(2) , then


a_(n) = 100
(-(1)/(2)) ^(n-1)
