Answer 1

-39

Explanation:

This sequence follows the pattern of subtracting 7 each time. We can prove this:

31 - 7 = 24, 24 - 7 = 17, 17 - 7 = 10

So if we were to continue to the 11th term, we would subtract 7 more times.

1. 10 - 7 = 3

2. 3 - 7 = -4

3. -4 - 7 = -11

4. -11 - 7 = -18

5. -18 - 7 = -25

6. -25 - 7 = -32

7. -32 - 7 = -39

The 11th term in the sequence would be -39.
