Example 2 Determine the sum of the first 100 terms for the series 2+5+ 8 + ...​

S₁₀₀ = 15050

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common difference between consecutive terms

5 - 2 = 8 - 5 = 3

This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with sum to n terms

= [ 2a₁ + (n - 1)d ]

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = 2 and d = 3 , then

S₁₀₀ = [ (2 × 2) + (99 × 3) ]

       = 50 (4 + 297)

       = 50 × 301

       = 15050

step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=2x^2 -1 

translation is a function transformation that transform the function in a way of translating. by translating the function its graph is moved  up an down. moving the function f(x) 2 units to the left will be the new function g(x) with the equation: g(x)=f(x+2)=2(x+2)^2 -1
