Using the formula \[n/6(n+1)(2n+1) \] evaluate \[\sum_{i=4}^{2}2i^2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that should be a 7 on top on the sigma, NOT a 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

does this formula even work for starting values of i>1

the formula u gave is for calculating the sum of the squares of the first n natural numbers. i doubt we can use it in this case since we're not using the first n natural numbers here....we're starting from 4. is it given that we have to use that formula?
