1. The problem asks to count back 10 times from each given negative number. Counting back means subtracting 1 repeatedly. 2. The formula for counting back $n$ times from a number $x$ is: $$x, x-1, x-2, \ldots, x-(n-1)$$ 3. We will apply this to each number for 10 counts back. 4. For example, for $-5$ counting back 10 times: $$-5, -6, -7, -8, -9, -10, -11, -12, -13, -14$$ 5. Now, let's list the 10 numbers counting back from each given number: - a) From $-5$: $$-5, -6, -7, -8, -9, -10, -11, -12, -13, -14$$ - b) From $-17$: $$-17, -18, -19, -20, -21, -22, -23, -24, -25, -26$$ - c) From $-24$: $$-24, -25, -26, -27, -28, -29, -30, -31, -32, -33$$ - d) From $-37$: $$-37, -38, -39, -40, -41, -42, -43, -44, -45, -46$$ - e) From $-49$: $$-49, -50, -51, -52, -53, -54, -55, -56, -57, -58$$ - f) From $-60$: $$-60, -61, -62, -63, -64, -65, -66, -67, -68, -69$$ 6. These sequences show the numbers counting back 10 times from each starting negative number as requested.
