Write the sum of the series 12 − 22 + 32 − 42 + 52 − 62 + ... + (2n − 1)2 − (2n)2.

The given series can be rewritten as:

$=-\left[3+7+11+...+\left(4n-1\right)\right]\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=-\left[\frac{n}{2}\left\{3×2+\left(n-1\right)4\right\}\right]\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=-\left[\frac{n}{2}\left(4n+2\right)\right]\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=-n\left(2n+1\right)$

#### Question 3:

Write the sum to n terms of a series whose rth term is r + 2r.

Series whose rth term is r + 2r:

$\left(1+{2}^{1}\right)+\left(2+{2}^{2}\right)+\left(3+{2}^{3}\right)+\left(4+{2}^{4}\right)+...+\left(n+{2}^{n}\right)$

Thus, we have:

If .

#### Question 5:

If the sum of first n even natural numbers is equal to k times the sum of first n odd natural numbers, then write the value of k.

According to the question,

#### Question 6:

Write the sum of 20 terms of the series $1+\frac{1}{2}\left(1+2\right)+\frac{1}{3}\left(1+2+3\right)+....$

Let the nth term be ${a}_{n}$.
Here,
${a}_{n}=\frac{1}{n}\left(1+2+3+...+n\right)=\left(\frac{n+1}{2}\right)$
We know:
${S}_{n}=\sum _{k=1}^{n}{a}_{k}$
Thus, we have:
${S}_{20}=\sum _{k=1}^{20}{a}_{k}$

#### Question 7:

Write the 50th term of the series 2 + 3 + 6 + 11 + 18 + ...

So, the 50th term of the given series is 2403.

#### Question 8:

Let Sn denote the sum of the cubes of first n natural numbers and sn denote the sum of first n natural numbers. Then, write the value of
$\sum _{r=1}^{n}\frac{{S}_{r}}{{s}_{r}}$.
