Write an expression to describe the sequence below, and then find the 10th term. Use n to represent the position of a term in the sequence, where n = 1 for the first term.

Question

–6, –12, –18, –24, ...

Answer 1

The expression to describe the sequence is -6n.
To find the 10th term, substitute n = 10 into the expression:
-6(10) = -60.
Therefore, the 10th term in the sequence is -60.
