Answer: -7324218

Step-by-step explanation: This is a geometric series because we can see the sequence is constantly decreasing by multiples of 5.

5 is being multiplied.

Sum of geometric progression formula: [tex]S_{n}=\frac{a(1-r^{n})}{1-r} \\[/tex]

Sn = sum of n terms

a = first term in sequence

r = common ratio/multiple

n = number of terms

Therefore: [tex]S_{10}=\frac{-3(1-5^{10})}{1-5}[/tex] = -7324218

brainliest please :)
