Evaluate Expression Range: We are asked to evaluate the sum of the expression nx+1 for n ranging from 0 to 2. This is a finite series where we substitute the values of n into the expression and sum the results.
Substitute n=0: First, substitute n=0 into the expression (nx+1). This gives us (0×x+1), which simplifies to 1.
Substitute n=1: Next, substitute n=1 into the expression (nx+1). This gives us (1×x+1), which simplifies to (x+1).
Substitute n=2: Finally, substitute n=2 into the expression (n×x+1). This gives us (2×x+1), which simplifies to (2x+1).
Sum Substitutions: Now, sum the results of the substitutions: 1+(x+1)+(2x+1).
Combine Like Terms: Combine like terms: 1+x+1+2x+1=3+3x.
