Problem

Find the sum. \[ \sum_{k=7}^{10}\left(6-k^{2}\right) \] $\sum_{k=7}^{10}\left(6-k^{2}\right)=\square($ Simplify your answer.)

Solution

Step 1 :We are given the sum \(\sum_{k=7}^{10}\left(6-k^{2}\right)\) and we are asked to find its value.

Step 2 :We can calculate this sum by iterating over the range of values from 7 to 10 (inclusive), calculating the value of the function \(6 - k^2\) for each \(k\), and adding them up.

Step 3 :Let's calculate the sum: \(-1 + (-20) + (-45) + (-76) = -142\)

Step 4 :So, the sum \(\sum_{k=7}^{10}\left(6-k^{2}\right) = -142\)

Step 5 :Final Answer: \(\boxed{-142}\)
