.

1.  The arithmetic mean of the numbers -2 and 18 is half of their sum   =  = 8.



2.  Regarding your sequence, I see 5 terms there  -30, -15, 0, 15, 30.


    Then I see ellipsis, that says me nothing.



    The sum of the five written terms is equal to zero.



    If you mean something different, then take a labor to describe this "something" adequately.

--------------------

For arithmetic sequences,  there are well known formulas,  written everywhere,  in any textbook or in numerous  Internet sites.

For example,  you may look into the lessons
    - Arithmetic progressions
    - The proofs of the formulas for arithmetic progressions
    - Problems on arithmetic progressions
    - Word problems on arithmetic progressions
in this site and to learn the subject from there . . .
