10. A frog is positioned at the origin (which label as 0) of a straight line. He can move in either positive(+) or negative() direction. Starting from 0, the frog must get to 2008 in exactly 19 jumps. The lengths of his jump are 12 , 22 , , 192 respectively (i.e. 1st jump =12 , 2nd jump = 22 , . . ., and so on). At which jump is the smallest last negative jump?
