Find the 10^th term of the sequence 10, 8, 6, ……..

Given, sequence : 10, 8, 6, ……..

The above sequence is an A.P. with first term (a) = 10 and common difference (d) = (8 - 10) = -2.

By formula,

⇒ a_n = a + (n - 1)d

⇒ a₁₀ = 10 + (10 - 1) × -2

⇒ a₁₀ = 10 + 9 × -2 = 10 - 18 = -8.

Hence, 10th term of the sequence = -8.
