Answer:

[tex]An= -4(6)^{n-1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

−4, −24, −144,...

There is no common difference

-24/-4= 6

-144/ -24= 6

common ratio = 6

when there is a common ratio then it is an Geometric sequence

[tex]An= a1(r)^{n-1}[/tex]

a1 is the first term = -4

r is the common ratio = 6

Formula becomes

[tex]An= -4(6)^{n-1}[/tex]
