But I have to make the formula for the sum of the geometric series

Answer 13

I came up with A_n = 100 - 35(.7)^(n-1)

Answer 14

This problem cannot be solved as stated. How many points are possible? Is it 100?

No Correction: 65
One Correct: 65 + 0.3*(35)
Two Corrections: 65 + 0.3*35 + 0.3*(100-(65 + 0.3*(35)))

Work it out. See where it goes.
