(D) We need to evaluate the sum $S = \sum_{r=16}^{30} (r^2 - r - 6)$.This can be split into three separate sums: $S = \sum_{r=16}^{30} r^2 - \sum_{r=16}^{30} r - \sum_{r=16}^{30} 6$.Using the formulas for the sum of the first $n$ integers and squares: $\sum_{r=1}^{n} r = \frac{n(n+1)}{2}$ and $\sum_{r=1}^{n} r^2 = \frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6}$.First,$\sum_{r=16}^{30} r^2 = \sum_{r=1}^{30} r^2 - \sum_{r=1}^{15} r^2 = \frac{30(31)(61)}{6} - \frac{15(16)(31)}{6} = 9455 - 1240 = 8215$.Second,$\sum_{r=16}^{30} r = \sum_{r=1}^{30} r - \sum_{r=1}^{15} r = \frac{30(31)}{2} - \frac{15(16)}{2} = 465 - 120 = 345$.Third,$\sum_{r=16}^{30} 6 = 6 	imes (30 - 16 + 1) = 6 	imes 15 = 90$.Therefore,$S = 8215 - 345 - 90 = 7780$.

The value of $\sum\limits_{r = 16}^{30} {(r + 2)(r - 3)}$ is equal to
