The video tutorial explains the geometric sequence Asobi, defined by a specific formula. It guides viewers through calculating the fifth term of the sequence using the formula, emphasizing the impact of raising negative numbers to even powers, which results in a positive value. The tutorial concludes with the final calculation, showing that the fifth term is positive 3 over 256.

What is the formula used to define the geometric sequence in the video?

• a_n = 3 * (-1/4)^(n-1)

• a_n = 3 * (1/4)^n

• a_n = 3 * (1/4)^(n-1)

• a_n = 3 * (-1/4)^n
