Step 1 :We are given a geometric sequence with the common ratio \(r = -\frac{1}{2}\), the sixth term \(a_{n} = \frac{11}{32}\), and \(n = 6\).
Step 2 :We can find the first term \(a_{1}\) of the geometric sequence using the formula \(a_{1} = \frac{a_{n}}{r^{n-1}}\).
Step 3 :Substitute the given values into the formula: \(a_{1} = \frac{\frac{11}{32}}{(-\frac{1}{2})^{6-1}}\).
Step 4 :Simplify the expression to find the value of \(a_{1}\).
Step 5 :Final Answer: \(a_{1} = \boxed{-11}\)
