Find the value of the sum. n integral i=1 (3+4i)^2
summoning @sirm3d :D
can you type the using the equation button?
or maybe draw
Ok one second.
They really should make an app for iPad...
\[\sum_{i=1}^{n}(3+4i)^2\]
we'll need three formulas \[\sum_{i=1}^{n}k=kn\] \[\sum_{i=1}^{n}i=\frac{ n(n+1) }{ 2 }\] \[\sum_{i=1}^{n}i^2 =\frac{ n(n+1)(2n+1) }{ 6 }\]
just expand the squared binomial, then apply the formula above
9+ 24i + 16 i^2 and then sub i and i^2 into those formulas?
yes
i'm no done yet, but is it suppose to be like tis?
it should be (n+1), not (n-1)
oh..memorized it wrong.. ok..doing it again
just change the minus sign in your computation
yea, i did. is everything else correct? just need to combine like terms?
yep. and don't miss the term n^3
16/3 n^3 + 20n^2 + 29n :)
got it right
thanks :DD
@sirm3d when i plug this in wolfralpha, how come it's like this ? http://www.wolframalpha.com/widgets/view.jsp?id=5fd7cbbc45010f147c06926c44aff0b7
the answer i got is 16/3 n^3 + 20n^2 + 71/3 n
integral is for continuous variables, summation is for discrete variables
oohh. ok got it :) ty
then there is no way to check my answer :/
here's a fourth formula \[\sum_{i=1}^{n}i^3=n^2(n+1)^2/4\]
but there is no i^3 in my function
is this a summation problem or an integral problem?
the link gave the equation 4x^3-2x+2
