Answer:
The answer is 85
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation used to find the sum of an arithmetic series is: (n/2) * (a1 + an).
n in this case is 10 (the number of numbers in the series)
an is 22 (plug in 10 to the expression 3n-8)
and a1 is -5 (plug in 1 to the expression 3n-8)
so when you plug everything in to the final equation, you get
(10/2) * (-5 + 22)
5 * 17
85
