Answer: -24
Explanation:
1. The first term is -2, and since it is the first term, multiply by one. This gives you -2.
2. Using the same method, in order to find the 12th term, multiply -2 by 12, because the rule between all the numbers is -2. If the rule were different every term, then you need to use a different method. But in this case, the answer is -24 mainly because all the terms are based on the same rule (-2).
