6 - 34 + 96 - 384 +... 
a 1 = 6 , a 2 = a 1 * ( - 4 ) ,  a 3 = a 2 * ( - 4 ), a 4 = a 3 * ( - 4)...
a 5 = - 384 * ( - 4 ) = 1,536
a 6 = 1536 * ( - 4 ) = - 6,144
a 7 = - 6,144 * ( - 4 ) = 24,576 
This is a sum of a geometric sequence:
S 7 = 6 - 24 + 96 - 384 + 1,536 - 6,144 + 24,576 = 19,662
Another way to solve this:
S 7 = a 1 * ( r^n - 1) / ( r - 1 ) = 6 * (( - 4) ^7 - 1 )/ (- 4 - 1)=
= 6 * (-16,385) / (-5 ) = 19,662

Roth IRA doesn't get you a tax deduction for the contributions, but the earnings grow tax free and you don't pay tax on the withdrawals after retirement. A traditional IRA gives you a tax deduction for the contributions at the time you make them, and the earnings grow tax free, but when you withdraw the money after retirement, you are taxed on it. The idea is that you are hopefully in a lower tax bracket at that point. So its only natural that Roth IRA is the best.
