Answer:

10240

Step-by-step explanation:

As it is a geometric sequence, you multiply each time with the same number but it is raised to a certain power (1 for the first value, 2 for the second, etc.) Here, we can see the number is -2 as  -2x 10 = -20 and 10x [tex]10 X (-2)^{2} = 40[/tex]

We mustcontinue to the tenth value which will be:

[tex]10 X (-2)^{10} = 10 X 2x^{10} = 10240[/tex]
