Vedclass · Answer

(B) The $n$-th term of the series is $T_n = n^2(n + 1) = n^3 + n^2$.The sum of $n$ terms is $S_n = \sum_{k=1}^n T_k = \sum_{k=1}^n (k^3 + k^2) = \sum_{k=1}^n k^3 + \sum_{k=1}^n k^2$.Using the standard summation formulas $\sum k^3 = [\frac{n(n+1)}{2}]^2$ and $\sum k^2 = \frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6}$:$S_n = [\frac{n(n+1)}{2}]^2 + \frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6}$$S_n = \frac{n(n+1)}{2} [\frac{n(n+1)}{2} + \frac{2n+1}{3}]$$S_n = \frac{n(n+1)}{2} [\frac{3n^2 + 3n + 4n + 2}{6}]$$S_n = \frac{n(n+1)(3n^2 + 7n + 2)}{12}$.
