You asked:

Find the sum of the sequence: 22, 3-3, 22, 3-3, 22, 3-3,\ldots

MathBot Answer:

The infinite series n=1(5(1)n212)\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \left(- \frac{5 \left(-1\right)^{n}}{2} - \frac{1}{2}\right) diverges.


This is a c geometric sequence.

The nth term in this sequence is given by the formula:

Explicit Formula: an=5(1)n212a_n=- \frac{5 \left(-1\right)^{n}}{2} - \frac{1}{2}

Recursive Formula: an=5(1)n+an1,where a1=2a_n=- 5 \left(-1\right)^{n} + a_{n-1}, \text{where } a_1=2
