Let's break down the problems step by step.

### Problem 4

#### (a) Given $$ T_7 = -4 $$ and $$ S_{16} = 24 $$

1. **Understanding the terms**:
   - The $$ n $$-th term of an arithmetic sequence can be expressed as:
     $$
     T_n = a + (n-1)d
     $$
     where $$ a $$ is the first term and $$ d $$ is the common difference.
   - The sum of the first $$ n $$ terms is given by:
     $$
     S_n = \frac{n}{2} (2a + (n-1)d)
     $$

2. **Using the given information**:
   - For $$ T_7 = -4 $$:
     $$
     T_7 = a + 6d = -4 \quad \text{(1)}
     $$
   - For $$ S_{16} = 24 $$:
     $$
     S_{16} = \frac{16}{2} (2a + 15d) = 24 \implies 8(2a + 15d) = 24 \implies 2a + 15d = 3 \quad \text{(2)}
     $$

3. **Solving the equations**:
   We have two equations:
   - $$ a + 6d = -4 $$ (1)
   - $$ 2a + 15d = 3 $$ (2)

Let's solve these equations simultaneously.

#### (b) The fifth term is 0 and the thirteenth term is $$ T_{13} $$

1. **Using the information**:
   - For $$ T_5 = 0 $$:
     $$
     T_5 = a + 4d = 0 \quad \text{(3)}
     $$
   - For $$ T_{13} $$:
     $$
     T_{13} = a + 12d \quad \text{(4)}
     $$

2. **Finding $$ T_{13} $$**:
   We can express $$ a $$ from equation (3):
   $$
   a = -4d
   $$
   Substitute $$ a $$ into equation (4):
   $$
   T_{13} = -4d + 12d = 8d
   $$

#### (c) The sum of the first 21 terms of the sequence

1. **Using the sum formula**:
   $$
   S_{21} = \frac{21}{2} (2a + 20d)
   $$

### Problem 5

1. **Given first term $$ a = 5 $$ and last term $$ l = 61 $$**:
   - The sum of an arithmetic series is given by:
     $$
     S_n = \frac{n}{2} (a + l)
     $$
   - We know $$ S_n = 957 $$:
     $$
     957 = \frac{n}{2} (5 + 61) \implies 957 = \frac{n}{2} \cdot 66 \implies n = \frac{957 \cdot 2}{66}
     $$

### Problem 6

1. **Given the sum of the first 10 terms $$ S_{10} = 145 $$**:
   - Using the sum formula:
     $$
     S_{10} = \frac{10}{2} (2a + 9d) = 145 \implies 5(2a + 9d) = 145 \implies 2a + 9d = 29 \quad \text{(5)}
     $$
   - The sum of the fourth and ninth terms is five times the third term:
     $$
     T_4 + T_9 = 5T_3
     $$
   - Expressing these terms:
     $$
     (a + 3d) + (a + 8d) = 5(a + 2d) \implies 2a + 11d = 5a + 10d \implies 3a + d = 0 \quad \text{(6)}
     $$

### Problem 7

#### (a) Show that $$ S_n = \frac{n(n+1)}{2} $$

1. **Using the formula for the sum of the first $$ n $$ natural numbers**:
   - The sum can be derived by pairing terms:
     $$
     S_n = 1 + 2 + 3 + \ldots + n
     $$
   - Pairing the first and last terms, second and second last, etc.

#### (b) Find the sum of the first 1001 terms excluding all multiples of 7

1. **Calculating the sum**:
   - The sum of the first $$ n $$ natural numbers excluding multiples of 7 can be calculated by finding the total sum and subtracting the sum of multiples of 7.

### Problem 8

#### (a) The 6th term is 28 and the 11th term is 896

1. **Using the geometric sequence formula**:
   - The $$ n $$-th term of a geometric sequence is given by:
     $$
     T_n = ar^{n-1}
     $$
   - For $$ T_6 = 28 $$:
     $$
     ar^5 = 28 \quad \text{(7)}
     $$
   - For $$ T_{11} = 896 $$:
     $$
     ar^{10} = 896 \quad \text{(8)}
     $$

#### (b) The 2nd term is 3 and the 4th term is $$ 6 \frac{3}{4} $$

1. **Using the geometric sequence formula**:
   - For $$ T_2 = 3 $$:
     $$
     ar = 3 \quad \text{(9)}
     $$
   - For $$ T_4 = 6.75 $$:
     $$
     ar^3 = 6.75 \quad \text{(10)}
     $$
