Find the sum of first `n` terms of the following series:`5+11+19+29+41+..................`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`5+11+19+29+41 ldots=(1+2^{2})+(2+3^{2})+(3+4^{2}) + (4+5^{2})`

`t n =n+(n+1^{2})`

`=n+n^{2}+2 n+1 `

`=n^{2}+3 n+1 `

`S n =sum(n^{2}+3 n+1) `

`=sum n^{2}+3 sum n+sum 1`

`=n(n+1)(2 n+1) / 6+3 n(n+1) / 2+n `

`=n(2 n^{2}+2 n+n+1+9 n+9+6) / 6 `
