- $$a _ { 1 } = - \frac { 1 } { 7 } , r = - 6$$

• A) \(a _ { n } = - \frac { 1 } { 7 } \cdot ( - 6 ) ^ { n - 1 }\)
• B) \(a _ { n } = \left( - \frac { 1 } { 7 } \right) ^ { n - 1 } + \frac { 1 } { 6 }\)
• C) \(a _ { n } = - \frac { 1 } { 7 } - \frac { 1 } { 6 } ( n - 1 )\)
• D) \(a _ { n } = - \frac { 1 } { 7 } + \frac { 1 } { 6 } ( n - 1 )\)
