A sequence has 12 elements. The six elements form a geometric progression and the last seven elements form an arithmetic progression. If the first element is 3 and the sixth element is -96,find the sum of the first six terms and the 10th element if the 12th element is -72.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The condition does not say that the FIRST six elements form a geometric progression.
