If $x_1 = -1$ and $x_m = x_{m+1} + (m + 1)$ for every positive integer $m,$ then $x_{100}$ equals

The average of a non-decreasing sequence of $N$ numbers $a_{1}, a_{2}, \ldots, a_{N}$ is $300$. If $a_{1}$ is replaced by $6 a_{1}$, the new average becomes $400$. Then, the number of possible values of $a_{1}$ is

An infinite geometric progression $a_1, a_2, a_3,...$ has the property that $a_n = 3(a_{n+1} + a_{n+2} +....)$ for every $n \ge 1$. If the sum $a_1 + a_2 + a_3 +..... = 32$, then $a_5$ is
