Answer:

The 10th term is -524,288

Step-by-step explanation:

The general format of a geometric sequence is:

a_{n} = r*a_{n-1}

In which r is the common ratio and a_{n+1} is the previous term.

We can also use the following equation:

a_{n} = a_{1}*r^{n-1}

In which a_{1} is the first term.

The common ratio of a geometric sequence is the division of the term a_{n+1} by the term a_{n}

In this question:

a_{1} = 2, a_{2} = -8, r = \frac{-8}{2} = -4

10th term:

a_{10} = 2*(-4)^{10-1} = -524288

The 10th term is -524,288
