\(-\frac{1}{5}\)
\(-\frac{1}{4}\)
\(-\frac{1}{3}\)
\(-\frac{1}{2}\)
Correct answer is B
Sr = \(\frac{a}{1 - r}\)
\(-\frac{1}{10}\) = \(\frac{1}{8} \times \frac{1}{1 - r}\)
\(-\frac{1}{10}\) = \(\frac{1}{8(1 - r)}\)
\(-\frac{1}{10}\) = \(\frac{1}{8 - 8r}\)
cross multiply...
-1(8 - 8r) = -10
-8 + 8r = -10
8r = -2
r = -1/4
