Through the history of math,mathematic tools have changed greatly. We
found a way of theory implementation in solving Quadratic Sum
functions and Cubic Sum Functions.

𝑆𝑛 = (𝑥(1 + 𝑥) − (𝑥 + 1)3 ) = 𝑘(𝑘 + 1)(2𝑘 + 1) (4)
Solving special mathematics equation has been a core problem of 6 6

mathematics research. About Quadratic Sum functions, there is some 3 CUBIC TO QUADRATIC EQUATION
alternative methods about proving them. Similarly, we can solve quadratic sum equations in similar ways.
One of the alternative ways of solving the equation is transferring cubic

2 QUADRATIC TO SIMPLE EQUATION equation to quadratic equation.


We consider an cubic equation: We consider two cases of quadratic equation,
3 3 2 (𝑥 + 1)2 = 𝑥 2 + 2𝑥 + 1
(𝑥 + 1) = 𝑥 + 3𝑥 + 3𝑥 + 1 (1) (1)

By subtracting term 𝑥 we can get an equation of (𝑥 − 1) = 𝑥 − 2𝑥 + 1 (2)

4𝑥 = (𝑥 + 1)2 − (𝑥 − 1)2

And we can add a parameter of 𝑥 2 to get the formula of 𝑥 3

4𝑥 ∗ 𝑥 2 = 𝑥 3

We can get a formula of this:

1
𝑥 3 = 𝑥 2 [(𝑥 + 1)2 − (𝑥 − 1)2 ] (3)

Then we can sum every primitives comes from this formulae together.

4 USING MATHS INSTANCES AND GUESSING


METHOD TO GET THE EQUATION
Using maths instances can be a useful way if you don’t know the proper way to

prove an equation. Now here is an example of concluding maths instances to get

the final result

When 𝑛 = 1, in this case we can get 𝑆𝑛 = 1

Assume that when𝑛 = 𝑘 the result is true

We can get

𝑆𝑘+1 = 𝑆𝑘 + 𝑎𝑘+1 (1)

1 1
(𝑘 + 1)(𝑘 + 2)(2𝑘 + 3) = 𝑘(𝑘 + 1)(2𝑘 + 1) + (𝑘 + 1)2

Makes sense

5 CONCLUSION
After solving these equations, we can find ways of mathematics problems solving

sometimes might be universal, especially some similar equations solved in similar

ways. Through the history of maths, mathematicians have developed almost all

similar functions in a single way and develop new ways to solve. This research on

Quadratic and Cubic equations can perfectly suite this.
