See below

Step-by-step explanation:

1)  Sum = (n/2){a1 + L]     where  n =  number count, a1 = first term and L = last term

so here its is (7/2) [ -10 + 8]

= 7/2 * -2

= -7  (answer)

2/

Sum of n terms  =   a1 * (1 - r^n)/ (1 - r)   where r = common ratio

Here r =  1/4

so its   1 * ( 1 - 1/4^5) / 1 - 1/4

= 341 / 256

3.

This is an arithmetic sequence  with first term -9,  last term 66  and common difference 5.

16

∑ (-9 + 5(n - 1)

n=1

Note the 16 comes from  66 being the 16th term  ( solve 66 = -9 + 5(n - 1)

5  This is geometric with common ratio -5 , first term 8  which continues without bounds.

∞

∑ 8(-5)^(n-1)

n=1

6. This is arithmetic with a1 = 1 and d = -5

Sn  = (n/2) [ 2a1 + (n - 1)d]

So S12 = 6( 2 + 11*-5)

= 6 *  -53

= -318 ( answer)

you already gave the answer
