Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Some function [] rounds DOWN a number to the nearest integer. For example [1.5]=1, [2]=2, [-1.5]=-2, ...
Thus [-1.6]+[3.4]+[2.7]=-2+3+2=3.
Notice that
, so
Then taking the positive square root gives
so 
and 
.
For sake of convenience, reverse the series, then it would be:
21,19,17.....7
a=21, d = -2,
s(4) = 4/2 (21+15)
s(4)=2(36)
s(4) = 72
