Answer:

[tex]c(n)=-5c(n-1)\\c(1)=-0.6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the geometric sequence

-0.6, 3, -15, 75, ...

Common ratio, [tex]r=\dfrac{3}{-0.6} =\dfrac{-15}{3}=-5[/tex]

The next term, [tex]c(n)[/tex] is obtained by multiplying the previous term c(n-1) by -5.

Therefore, the recursive formula for the sequence is:

[tex]c(n)=-5c(n-1)\\c(1)=-0.6[/tex]
