600000*.9^4 = 393660

16+32*9 = 304

F12 = 89

8*1/√2^5 = √2

Assuming no one received more than one message
2+4+8+16+32 = 62
I suspect a typo in the problem.
using the formula Sn=n/2(2a+(n-1)d)
S5=5/2(2(2)+(5-1)2)
S5=5/2(4+(4)2)
S5=5/2(4+8)
S5=5/2(12)
S5=5/2 x 12/1
S5=60/2 or 30+1= 31
S5=31
600000*.9^4 = 393660

16+(9)32 = 304

6/2 (2+(6-1)8)
3(2+40)=126
#5
5/2 (4(5-1)2) = 30
30 + 1 (the principals text) = 31
