so the first 4 terms would be 13, 21 , 29, 37 2. ------------------------------------------------- 16*15*14*13*12*11*10*9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1 ] (2*1)(14*13*12*11*10*9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1) I would solve this by getting rid of 14 through 1 on top and bottom leaving 16*15 ______ 2*1 this would then = 240/2 which simplifies to 120 as your answer. 3. 1^2 + 2^2 + 3^2 + 4^2 + 5^2 which translates into 1+4+9+16+25 which equals 55 and that is the sum of the problem. 4. 33,000 + (9*2500)
