Find the sum of the following series to n terms:
1.2.5 + 2.3.6 + 3.4.7 + ……..
The nth term be n(n + 1)(n + 4)
Thus we can write 1.2.5 + 2.3.6 + 3.4.7 + ……..
The general term would be r(r + 1)(r + 4)
We know by property that:
∑axn + bxn - 1 + cxn - 2…….d0=a∑xn + b∑xn - 1 + c∑xn - 2…….. + d0∑1
Thus,
=
……(1)
We know
Substituting in (1)
