Q. Evaluate the summation below.6p=0∑3(−p2+2p)Answer:
Expand and Calculate: We start by expanding the summation expression −p2+2p for each value of p from 0 to 3.For p=0: −02+2⋅0=0For p=1: −12+2⋅1=−1+2=1For p=2: −22+2⋅2=−4+4=0For p0: p1
Sum up Results: Now, we sum up the results of the expression for each value of p.Sum: 0+1+0−3=−2
Multiply by 6: Finally, we multiply the sum by 6 as indicated by the summation expression 6∑p=03(−p2+2p). 6×(−2)=−12
