Detailed Solution

Since, tn=n5+n3n4+n2+1

=n-nn4+n2+1 =n+12n2+n+1-12n2-n+1

Sum of n terms Sn=tn

=n+121n2+n+1-1n2-n+1

=n(n+1)2+121n2+n+1-1  [by property]

=n22+n2-12+12n2+2n+2 

=n2+1222-18-12+1n2+122+32 

=n2+1222-58+1n2+122+32 

but given, Sn=an2+a+1bn2+b

On comparing, we get an=n2+122, a=-58, bn=n2+12, b=32 

  bnan=2, which is constant.
