Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The terms of this sum make the arithmetic sequence.
The fomula of a sum of <em>n</em> terms of an arithmetic sequence:
![S_n=\dfrac{[2a_1+(n-1)d]\cdot n}{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S_n%3D%5Cdfrac%7B%5B2a_1%2B%28n-1%29d%5D%5Ccdot%20n%7D%7B2%7D)
We have

Substitute:
![S_{50}=\dfrac{[2\cdot2+(50-1)\cdot15]\cdot50}{2}=(4+49\cdot15)\cdot25=(4+735)\cdot25\\\\=739\cdot25=18,475](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S_%7B50%7D%3D%5Cdfrac%7B%5B2%5Ccdot2%2B%2850-1%29%5Ccdot15%5D%5Ccdot50%7D%7B2%7D%3D%284%2B49%5Ccdot15%29%5Ccdot25%3D%284%2B735%29%5Ccdot25%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D739%5Ccdot25%3D18%2C475)
Answer a^3-3a
a^2 times a = a^3 you add exponents
FOIL this out. 3x*x = 3x^2; 3x*8= 24x; -8*x = -8x; -8*8=-64. Combine like terms to get
