The general term of the G.P. is :
(-1)(n - 1) × 2(n - 3)
(-1)(n - 1) × 2(n - 2)
(-1)(n - 1) × (-2)(n - 1)
(-1)(n - 1) × (-2)(n - 3)

Answer
We know that,
nth term of a G.P. is given by,
Tn = arn - 1
In the given G.P.,
a =
r = = -2.
⇒ Tn = (-2)n - 1
= .(-2)n - 1
= 2-2.(-1)n - 1.(2)n - 1
= (-1)n - 1.(2) -2 + n - 1
= (-1)n - 1.(2)n - 3
Hence, option 1 is the correct option.
