Hey guys

This is from the 2007 exam, I understand it but not really why you have to use S7 instead of S8.

Maria’s brother, Rupert, believes he will beneÞ t by reducing his daily kilojoule intake. His kilojoule intake over
14 days will follow a geometric sequence with a common ratio of 0.95.
On day 1, Rupert’s kilojoule intake was 12 000.

Determine Rupert’s total kilojoule intake from day 8 to day 14 inclusive.
Write your answer correct to the nearest kilojoule..

"Don’t ever let somebody tell you you can’t do something, not even me.  Alright?  You got a dream, you gotta protect it.  People can’t do something themselves, they wanna tell you you can’t do it.  If you want something, go get it, period." - Chris Gardner
