$a_{10} = - 49$ $a_10 = -49$

Explanation:

This is a formula for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence. By the notation $a_{10}$ $a_10$ , $n = 10$ $n = 10$ , or you will find the tenth term of the sequence.

$a_{10} = 1 - 5 (10)$ $a_10 = 1 - 5(10)$

$a_{10} = 1 - 50$ $a_10 = 1 - 50$

$a_{10} = - 49$ $a_10 = -49$

Hopefully this helps!
