Answer

\begin{array}{lclcl} c_1=-1&\\ c_2=-1&\\ c_3=-1&\\ c_4=-1\\ \end{array}

Work Step by Step

Given $$\ \ \ c_n=(-1)^{2 n+1}, \ \ \ \ \ \ n= 1, 2,3, \dots $$ So, we get \begin{array}{|l|l|}\hline & n& \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ c_n \\ \\ \hline \text{First Term} & 1 & c_1=(-1)^{2 +1}=(-1)^3=-1 \\ \\ \hline \text{Second Term} & 2 & c_2=(-1)^{4+1}=(-1)^5=-1\\ \\ \hline \text{Third Term} & 3 & c_3=(-1)^{6+1}=(-1)^7=-1\\ \\ \hline \text{Fourth Term} & 4 & c_4=(-1)^{8+1}=(-1)^9=-1\\ \\ \hline \end{array}
