Question

1x2+2x3+3x4+...+17x18+18x19+19x20

Answer 1

\(=\dfrac{1}{3}\left(1\times2\times3+2\times3\times3+...+19\times20\times3\right)\\ =\dfrac{1}{3}\left[1\times2\times\left(3-0\right)+2\times3\times\left(4-1\right)+...+19\times20\times\left(21-18\right)\right]\\ =\dfrac{1}{3}\left(1\times2\times3-1\times2\times3+2\times3\times4-...-18\times19\times20+19\times20\times21\right)\\ =\dfrac{1}{3}\times19\times20\times21=2660\)
