Q67 of 74 Page 9

Find the sum of the following series upto n terms 3 × 12, 5 × 22, 7 × 32,……..


Let Tn donotes the nth term of the given series. Then,

Tn = [nth term of 3, 5, 7,….]

[nth term of 1, 2, 3,….]2

    = [3 +(n – 1)2][1 + (n – 1).1]2

    = (2n – 1) (n)2

    = n2(2n – 1) = 2n3 + n2


Hence Sn = 2∑ n3 + ∑ n2

             = 2.

             =

             =

             =
