Question

Find the indicated sum.

Answer 1

Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

The starting point is at 1 and the stopping is at 5(if you want to know where to find these, look at the image attached).

For i=1, we have i-4, which would be 1 - 4, or -3.

For i=2, we have i-4, which would be 2 - 4, or -2.

For i=3, we have i-4, which would be 3 - 4, or -1.

For i=4, we have i-4, which would be 4 - 4, or 0.

For i=5, we have i-4, which would be 5 - 4, or 1.

We would add these 5 values:

-3 + (-2) + (-1) + 0 + 1

This gives us -5
