The problem provided presents a sequence $\{x_n\}$ defined as:

$x_0 = \frac{5}{2} \quad \text{and} \quad x_n = x_{n-1}^2 - 2 \quad \text{for every} \, n = 1, 2, 3, \dots$

It is known that:

$x_1 \cdot x_2 \cdot \cdots \cdot x_{23} = \frac{p}{q}$

for some integers $p$ and $q$ such that the greatest common divisor $\text{FPB}(p, q) = 1$. The problem asks for the last digit (the units digit) of $p + q$.

Approach to the Problem:

1. Sequence Recurrence Relation: The sequence is defined recursively with the formula $x_n = x_{n-1}^2 - 2$. Starting from $x_0 = \frac{5}{2}$, calculate the next terms $x_1, x_2, \dots, x_{23}$.

2. Understanding the Product: We are tasked with determining the product of the sequence's terms up to $x_{23}$, i.e., $x_1 \cdot x_2 \cdot \dots \cdot x_{23}$, which is given to be $\frac{p}{q}$.

3. Finding $p + q$: After calculating $p$ and $q$, the goal is to determine the units digit of $p + q$, ensuring that $\text{FPB}(p, q) = 1$ (i.e., $p$ and $q$ are coprime).

Let's first work through the calculation of the sequence terms and the product to figure out $p$ and $q$.
