Please read posting guidelines.
What's the first term?
 
Do you not understand what "\(\displaystyle a_{n+1}= -2a_n-1\)" means?

\(\displaystyle a_2= 2a_1- 1\). You are told that \(\displaystyle a_1= -4\). So what is \(\displaystyle a_2\)?

And then what is \(\displaystyle a_3= 2a_2- 1\) so what is \(\displaystyle a_3\)?
