This symbol means that you have to evaluate the generic term -4n+1 at n=1,2,3,4,5, and then sum all the terms. Here's the table:

\begin{array}{c|c}n&-4n+1\\1&-3\\2&-7\\3&-11\\4&-15\\5&-19\end{array}

So, their sum is

-3-7-11-15-19=-55

Alternatively, you manipulate the expression to get

\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^5(-4n+1) = \sum_{n=1}^5(-4n) + \sum_{n=1}^5 1 = -4\sum_{n=1}^5 n + \sum_{n=1}^5 1

For the first sum you can use the formula

\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^k n = \dfrac{k(k+1)}{2} \implies \sum_{n=1}^5 n = \dfrac{5\cdot 6}{2} = 15

The second sum is simply 1 summed 5 times with itself: 1+1+1+1+1=5.

So, we have

-4\cdot 15 + 5 = -60+5 = -55

This just wants the derivative which you can solve for.
You can do this using a negative expononet or using ...the rational rule forget its name*.... you shoudl get 9000/(t+12)^2
