Question: Consider the telescoping series given below: n = 1 c n = n = 1 ( 7 ( n + 3 ) 3 - 7

Consider the telescoping series given below:
n=1cn=n=1(7(n+3)3-7(n+1)3)
Write the expressions for the first four terms in the sequence of partial sums {sm}. You may cancel
positive and negative versions of the same fraction, but otherwise, leave your answers as unsimplified sums
of fractions. Do not try to combinesimplify fractions (other than the cancelation mentioned earlier)or use
decimal approximations.
s1=
s2=
s3=(7(1+3)3-7(1+1)3)+(7(2+3)3-7(2+1)3)+(7(3+3)3-7(3+1)3)2
s4=
(7(1+3)3-7(1+1)3)+(7(2+3)3-7(2+1)3)+(7(3+3)3-7(3+1)3)+(7(4+3)3-7(4+1)3)
s5=
(7(1+3)3-7(1+1)3)+(7(2+3)3-7(2+1)3)+(7(3+3)3-7(3+1)3)+(7(4+3)3-7(4+1)3)+(7(5+3)3-7(5+1)3)
Based on the data above, give a formula for the mth partial sum, smm2
