Given series is 
\small 10,7,4,...,
Here, a = 10
and 
d = 7 - 10 = -3
Now, we know that
a_n = a+(n-1)d
It is given that n = 30
Therefore,
a_{30} = 10+(30-1)(-3)
a_{30} = 10+(29)(-3)
a_{30} = 10-87 = -77
Therefore, \small 30th term of the AP:  \small 10,7,4,...,   is -77
Hence, Correct answer is (C)
