From any sequence $a_{1}, a_{2}, \ldots, a_{10}$, construct a sequence $b_{1}, b_{2}, \ldots, b_{9}$, where $b_{i}$ counts the number of times $i$ occurs in the sequence. There is a correspondence from all possible sequences $b_{1}, b_{2}, \ldots, b_{9}$ with at most 3 nonzero terms which add to 10 , since any sequence of $a_{1}, a_{2}, \ldots, a_{10}$ will be converted to this form, and from any sequence $b_{1}, b_{2}, \ldots, b_{9}$, we can construct a unique sequence of $a$-s by listing $i b_{i}$ times (for $1 \leq i \leq 9$ ) in nondecreasing order. Our goal now is to count the number of possible sequences $b_{1}, b_{2}, \ldots, b_{9}$ meeting our conditions. We casework on the number of nonzero terms in the sequence: Case 1: The sequence has exactly one nonzero term. Then exactly one of $b_{1}, b_{2}, \ldots, b_{9}$ is equal to 10 , and all the rest are equal to 0 . This gives us 9 possible sequences in this case. Case 2: The sequence has exactly two nonzero terms. There are $\binom{9}{2}=36$ ways to choose the two terms $b_{i}, b_{j}(i<j)$ which are nonzero. From here, we have 9 choices for the value of $b_{i}$, namely 1 through 9 (since both $b_{i}$ and $b_{j}$ must be nonzero), and $b_{j}$ will be fixed, so this case gives us $36 \cdot 9=324$ possible sequences. Case 3: The sequence has exactly three nonzero terms. There are $\binom{9}{3}=84$ ways to choose the three terms $b_{i}, b_{j}, b_{k}(i<j<k)$ which are nonzero. Letting $c_{i}=b_{i}-1, c_{j}=b_{j}-1, c_{k}=b_{k}-1$, we have that $c_{i}, c_{j}, c_{k}$ are nonnegative integers which sum to 7 . There are $\binom{9}{2}=36$ solutions to this equation (consider placing two dividers in the nine spaces between the ten elements), giving $84 \cdot 36=3024$ possbilities in this case. We then have $9+324+3024=3357$ possible sequences.
