Let a(0) represent the first term; its value is -10.  The next term is found by subtracting 2 from -10, obtaining -12.  Each new term is created by subtracting 2 from the previous one.  Thus, the formula for the nth term is

a(n) = a(0)-2(n-1), or a(n) = -10-2(n-1).

First term:  -10

Second:  -12

Third:  -14,

....

Tenth term:  a(10) = -10-2(10-1) = -10 - 18 = -28

Here, I'll do the first one for you.
When they are talking about a number, use "x".
Since it says twice a number, you say 2x. Or 3x for three times the number
2x+12=3x-31
Then use algebra to find x. Get the numbers on one side and all the x's on the other.
2x+12+31=3x-31+31
2x+43-2x=3x-2x
x=43

Now do the rest on your own!
