Read the following Passage. Understand the Mathematical concept in it and answer the questions that follow. Each question carries 1 score. The common difference of the arithmetic sequence 15,14,13,12,...... is 14-15=-1 . First terms of the sequence is 15 and the 15th term is 15+14x-1=15-14=1 . Similarly the 4th term is 12 and the 12^(th) term is 4. Its 16th term is, x_(16)=15+15x-1=15-15=0 . So the sum of the first 31 terms is also zero. that is if the n^(th) is m, then the mth term is n and the (m+n)^(th) term is zero. Seventh term of an arithmetic sequence is 10 and the 10^(th) term is 7. What is the common difference?

The common difference of the arithmetic sequence 15, 14, 13, 12,......is 14-15=-1. First term of the sequence is 15 and the 15^(th) term is 15 + 14 xx-1= 15-14=1 . Similarly the 4^(th) term is 12 and the 12^(th) term is 4. Its 16^(th) term is x_16 = 15 + 15xx-1= 15-15 = 0 . So the sum of the first 31 terms is also zero. That is if then n^(th) term of an arithmetic sequence with common difference -1 is m, then the m^(th) term is n and the (m + n)^(th) term is zero. 7^(th) term of an arithmetic sequence is 10 and the 10^(th) term is 7. What is the common difference?
