Explanation Given: The sum ∑ i = 1 50 ( 3 i − 2 ) . Consider the sum ∑ i = 1 50 ( 3 i − 2 ) Replace i in the expression 3 i − 2 with all consecutive integers from 1 to 50 inclusive. For i = 1 , the value of the expression 3 i − 2 is, 3 i − 2 = 3 × 1 − 2 = 3 − 2 = 1 For i = 2 , the value of the expression 3 i − 2 is, 3 i − 2 = 3 × 2 − 2 = 6 − 2 = 4 For i = 3 , the value of the expression 3 i − 2 is, 3 i − 2 = 3 × 3 − 2 = 9 − 2 = 7 For i = 4 , the value of the expression 3 i − 2 is, 3 i − 2 = 3 × 4 − 2 = 12 − 2 = 10 For i = 50 , the value of the expression 3 i − 2 is, <
