Answer:
[tex]\sum\limits^n_{k=1} {(-14+5k)}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The series is an arithmetic series with first term (a1) -9 and common difference (d) 5. Then the general term (an) is ...
an = a1 +d(n-1) = -9 +5(n-1) = -14 +5n
The summation notation indicates the sum of "n" of these terms.
