Answer

The consecutive integers are $\{ 2,5,10,17,26,37\}$ and the sum is $=97$.

Work Step by Step

The given expression is $n^2+1$. Plug $n=1$. $=1^2+1$ $=1+1$ $=2$. Plug $n=2$. $=2^2+1$ $=4+1$ $=5$. Plug $n=3$. $=3^2+1$ $=9+1$ $=10$. Plug $n=4$. $=4^2+1$ $=16+1$ $=17$. Plug $n=5$. $=5^2+1$ $=25+1$ $=26$ Plug $n=6$. $=6^2+1$ $=36+1$ $=37$. Sum of the all values. $=2+5+10+17+26+37$ $=97$.
