ANSWER

\sum_{k=3}^5( - 2k + 5) =  - 9

EXPLANATION

The given series is

\sum_{k=3}^5( - 2k + 5)

This series is finite.

The expanded form is

\sum_{k=3}^5( - 2k + 5) = ( - 2 \times 3 + 5) + ( - 2 \times 4 + 5) + ( - 2 \times 5 + 5)

This simplifies to

\sum_{k=3}^5( - 2k + 5) = ( - 6 + 5) + ( - 8+ 5) + ( - 10+ 5)

\sum_{k=3}^5( - 2k + 5) = ( - 1) + ( - 3) + ( - 5)

\sum_{k=3}^5( - 2k + 5) =  - 9

Answer:

Area in square feet covered by one pound bag of seed

= \frac{7575}{\frac{165}{4} } \\= \frac{7575 * 4}{165} \\= 183.63 square feet
