The sum 1 2 - 2 . 3 2 + 3 . 5 2 - 4 . 7 2 + 5 . 9 2 - … . . + 15 . 29 2 is _____ .

The sum 12-2.32+3.52-4.72+5.92-..+15.292 is _____ .

Solution

Given,

S=12-2·32+3·52............+15·292

Now rewriting the above expression we get,

S=12+2·32+3·52............+15·292S1-22·32+4·72............+14·272S2

Now solving S1=12+2·32+3·52............+15·292

S1=r=115r·2r-12

S1=r=115r·4r2+1-4r

S1=r=1154r3+r-4r2

S1=4r=115r3+r=115r-4r=115r2
S1=415×1622+15×162-415×16×316

S1=41202+120-4960

S1=52760

Now solving S2=2·32+4·72............+14·272

S2=r=172r4r-12

S2=r=172r16r2+1-8r

S2=32r=17r3+2r=17r-16r=17r2

S2=327×822+27×82-167×8×156

S2=32×784+56-16×140=22904

Hence, S=S1-2S2=52760-2×22904=6952
