It's saying that on every other stop(with even numbers)you add 2 people, and on all the other stops(odd numbers)you subtract 5 people. Be sure that you start with 18 people on the bus! Keep doing this until there is no more people on the bus!
Answer:
4092
Step-by-step explanation:
r = 2
a1 = 4×(2)^(1 - 1) = 4
S10 = a1×((1 - r^10)/(1 - r)
= 4×((1 - 2^10)/(1 - 2))
= 4×((1 - 2^10)/-1)
= 4×(-(1 - 2^10))
= -4×(1 - 2^10)
= -4 + 4 × 2^10
= -4 + 2^2 × 2^10
= -4 + 2^12
= -4 + 4096
= 4092
