Dear student
Given:fx=ax2+bx+ca+b+c=3  ...*fx+y=fx+fy+xyPut x=1,y=1f2=f1+f1+1f2=2f1+1Now, f1=a12+b1+c=a+b+c=3    using *f2=2f1+1=2×3+1   as f1=3=6+1=7Put x=2,y=1f3=f2+f1+2=7+3+2=12Put x=3,y=1f4=f3+f1+3=12+3+3=18S=f1+f2+f3+f4+..=3+7+12+18+...=3+3+4+3+4+5+3+4+5+6...Tr=r26+r-1=r25+r Rr=125r+r2Now, Tr=125×nn+12+nn+12n+16=125×1010+12+1010+1210+16=12275+385]=330
