n-4 is the rule of the sequence.

Simply replace "n" with a number and solve your equation.

For example, if you are finding the 5th term, you do it like this:

= n - 4

= (5) - 4

= 1

Now, as you asked, the tenth term:

= n - 4

= (10) - 4

= 6

Explanation:

the nth term is n-4, so the 10th term (that means n = 10) is then 10-4 = 6
