00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.203
Here is the problem: sum k squared, k equals 1 to 10.

2
00:00:04.653 --> 00:00:09.285
Add the terms k ^ 2 for k equals 1, 2, …, 10 (10 terms).

3
00:00:10.085 --> 00:00:10.979
Write the sum.

4
00:00:11.429 --> 00:00:12.764
List the first terms.

5
00:00:13.214 --> 00:00:15.942
Add all 10 terms exactly (as fractions).

6
00:00:16.742 --> 00:00:19.482
So the answer is 385.

7
00:00:19.932 --> 00:00:28.442
Each term is computed exactly and added. For long arithmetic or geometric sums a closed formula gives the same result.

8
00:00:29.242 --> 00:00:32.261
