Vedclass · Answer

(B) Given the $n^{th}$ term $T_n = 3 + n(n - 1) = n^2 - n + 3$.The sum of $n$ terms is $S_n = \sum_{k=1}^{n} T_k = \sum_{k=1}^{n} (k^2 - k + 3)$.Using the standard summation formulas $\sum k^2 = \frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6}$,$\sum k = \frac{n(n+1)}{2}$,and $\sum 1 = n$:$S_n = \frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6} - \frac{n(n+1)}{2} + 3n$.$S_n = \frac{n(n+1)(2n+1) - 3n(n+1) + 18n}{6}$.$S_n = \frac{n[(n+1)(2n+1) - 3(n+1) + 18]}{6}$.$S_n = \frac{n[2n^2 + 3n + 1 - 3n - 3 + 18]}{6}$.$S_n = \frac{n[2n^2 + 16]}{6} = \frac{2n(n^2 + 8)}{6} = \frac{n(n^2 + 8)}{3} = \frac{n^3 + 8n}{3}$.
