floor [ (2-3x) / (x + 5) ]
This isn't as daunting as it seems
Notice the first few terms....
f(1) = floor( -1 /6) = -1 .. f(2) = floor (-4/7) = -1... f(3) = floor (-7/8) = -1 ...f(4) = floor (-10/9)= -2
And f(11) = floor (-31/16) = -2 ....and f(12) = floor (-34 / 17) = -2 and f(13) =floor (-37/18) = -3
And every successive term has has a floor of -3....for example f(1000) = floor(-2998/ 1005) = -3
So.... 3 terms have a floor = -1
And 9 terms have a floor of -2
And (1000 - 12) = (988) terms have a floor of -3
So the sum is 3(-1) + 9(-2) + 988(-3) = -2985
