Hey!

-------------------------------------------------

Since each term is -12 smaller than the previous we can just multiply.

-12 x 5 = -60 per 5 terms.

Just add -60 in a pair of 5 terms till you get to the 50th term.

5th term: -41

10th term: -101

15th term: -161

20th term: -221

25th term: -281

30th term: -341

35th term: -401

40th term: -461

45th term: -521

50th term: -581

-------------------------------------------------

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!
