Answer:

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = - 3[tex]a_{n-1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common ratio between consecutive terms of the sequence, that is

r = 9 ÷ - 3 = - 27 ÷ 9 = 81 ÷ - 27 = - 243 ÷ 81 = - 3

The recursive formula is of the form

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = r[tex]a_{n-1}[/tex] = - 3[tex]a_{n-1}[/tex]
