To solve the problems, we need to identify the pattern in each sequence and then use that pattern to find the specified term. Let's go through each sequence step by step.

---

Sequence 1: \( 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, \ldots \)



#### Step 1: Identify the pattern
The sequence increases by a constant difference:
\[
20 - 16 = 4, \quad 24 - 20 = 4, \quad 28 - 24 = 4, \quad 32 - 28 = 4
\]
So, the common difference is \( d = 4 \).

#### Step 2: General formula for an arithmetic sequence
The \( n \)-th term of an arithmetic sequence is given by:
\[
a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d
\]
where \( a_1 \) is the first term, \( d \) is the common difference, and \( n \) is the term number.

Here, \( a_1 = 16 \) and \( d = 4 \).

#### Step 3: Find the 22nd term
\[
a_{22} = 16 + (22-1) \cdot 4
\]
\[
a_{22} = 16 + 21 \cdot 4
\]
\[
a_{22} = 16 + 84
\]
\[
a_{22} = 100
\]

#### Answer:
\[
\boxed{100}
\]

Sequence 2: \( 3, 9, 15, 21, 27, \ldots \)



#### Step 1: Identify the pattern
The sequence increases by a constant difference:
\[
9 - 3 = 6, \quad 15 - 9 = 6, \quad 21 - 15 = 6, \quad 27 - 21 = 6
\]
So, the common difference is \( d = 6 \).

#### Step 2: General formula for an arithmetic sequence
Using the formula \( a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d \):
Here, \( a_1 = 3 \) and \( d = 6 \).

#### Step 3: Find the 21st term
\[
a_{21} = 3 + (21-1) \cdot 6
\]
\[
a_{21} = 3 + 20 \cdot 6
\]
\[
a_{21} = 3 + 120
\]
\[
a_{21} = 123
\]

#### Answer:
\[
\boxed{123}
\]

---

Sequence 3: \( 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, \ldots \)



#### Step 1: Identify the pattern
The sequence increases by a constant difference:
\[
4 - 2 = 2, \quad 6 - 4 = 2, \quad 8 - 6 = 2, \quad 10 - 8 = 2
\]
So, the common difference is \( d = 2 \).

#### Step 2: General formula for an arithmetic sequence
Using the formula \( a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d \):
Here, \( a_1 = 2 \) and \( d = 2 \).

#### Step 3: Find the 18th term
\[
a_{18} = 2 + (18-1) \cdot 2
\]
\[
a_{18} = 2 + 17 \cdot 2
\]
\[
a_{18} = 2 + 34
\]
\[
a_{18} = 36
\]

#### Answer:
\[
\boxed{36}
\]

---

Sequence 4: \( 10, 22, 34, 46, 58, \ldots \)



#### Step 1: Identify the pattern
The sequence increases by a constant difference:
\[
22 - 10 = 12, \quad 34 - 22 = 12, \quad 46 - 34 = 12, \quad 58 - 46 = 12
\]
So, the common difference is \( d = 12 \).

#### Step 2: General formula for an arithmetic sequence
Using the formula \( a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d \):
Here, \( a_1 = 10 \) and \( d = 12 \).

#### Step 3: Find the 19th term
\[
a_{19} = 10 + (19-1) \cdot 12
\]
\[
a_{19} = 10 + 18 \cdot 12
\]
\[
a_{19} = 10 + 216
\]
\[
a_{19} = 226
\]

#### Answer:
\[
\boxed{226}
\]

---

Sequence 5: \( 22, 27, 32, 37, 42, \ldots \)



#### Step 1: Identify the pattern
The sequence increases by a constant difference:
\[
27 - 22 = 5, \quad 32 - 27 = 5, \quad 37 - 32 = 5, \quad 42 - 37 = 5
\]
So, the common difference is \( d = 5 \).

#### Step 2: General formula for an arithmetic sequence
Using the formula \( a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d \):
Here, \( a_1 = 22 \) and \( d = 5 \).

#### Step 3: Find the 33rd term
\[
a_{33} = 22 + (33-1) \cdot 5
\]
\[
a_{33} = 22 + 32 \cdot 5
\]
\[
a_{33} = 22 + 160
\]
\[
a_{33} = 182
\]

#### Answer:
\[
\boxed{182}
\]
