Answer:

  an = 400·(1/2)^(n -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term of the sequence is a1 = 400. The common ratio is r = 200/400 = 1/2.

The general term of a geometric sequence is ...

  an = a1·r^(n-1)

Filling in the applicable values, we get the explicit formula ...

  an = 400·(1/2)^(n -1)

__

This can be simplified to ...

  an = 800/2^n
