The sum $\sum\limits_{k=1}^{20}(1+2+3+\ldots+k)$ is
✓

Answer

c
$\sum_{\mathrm{k}=1}^{20} \frac{\mathrm{k}(\mathrm{k}+1)}{2}=\frac{1}{2} \sum_{\mathrm{k}=1}^{20} \frac{\mathrm{k}(\mathrm{k}+1)(\mathrm{k}+2)-(\mathrm{k}-1) \mathrm{k}(\mathrm{k}+1)}{3}$

$=\frac{1}{6} \times 20 \times 21 \times 22=1540$
