Answer:
The sum of the series is 44.
Step-by-step explanation:
Sigma notation. I just had a test on this, so this is pretty good timing.
Below the sigma, we see that k = 1. This means that 1 is the number you would substitute for k into the expression on the right to get the first term. In this case, the first term is -2. (2(1)² - 4)
Now, we can also find out the number of terms in the series by subtracting 1 (taken from k = 1) from the number on top of the sigma, 4, and then adding 1 to it.
4 - 1 + 1 = 4. This means there are 4 terms in the series.
See the remaining work in the attached file. You should get that the sum of the series is 44.
Hope this helps!
