Mistake #1: 1/2x was added; it should have been subtracted to get 5.5x
Mistake #2: 5/4 + 5 (20/4) is 25/4, which is 6.25 and not 3.75.
You should get 5.5x = 6.25, and x = 1.36. (not 15/26)

1²+3²+4²+.......+(2n-2)²= ⅓n(2n-1)(2n+1)
sergiy2304 [10]
                       1² + 3² + 4² + 4(n - 1)² = ¹/₃n(2n - 1)(2n + 1)
                       1² + 3² + 4² + (2n - 2)² = ¹/₃n(2n - 1)(2n + 1)
              1 + 9 + 16 + (2n - 2)(2n - 2) = ¹/₃n(2n(2n + 1) - 1(2n + 1))
  10 + 16 + (2n(2n - 2) - 2(2n - 2)) = ¹/₃n(2n(2n) + 2n(1) - 1(2n) - 1(1)    16 + (2n(2n) - 2n(2) - 2(2n) + 2(2)) = ¹/₃n(4n² + 2n - 2n - 1)
                     26 + (4n² - 4n - 4n + 4) = ¹/₃n(4n² - 1)
                            26 + (4n² - 8n + 4) = ¹/₃n(4n² - 1)
                              26 + 4n² - 8n + 4 = ¹/₃n(4n²) - ¹/₃n(1)
                              4n² - 8n + 4 + 26 = 1¹/₃n³ - ¹/₃n
                                    4n² - 8n + 30 = 1¹/₃n³ - ¹/₃n
                                          + ¹/₃n                     + ¹/₃n
                                 4n² - 7²/₃n + 30 = 1¹/₃n³
                   -1¹/₃n³ + 4n² - 7²/₃n + 30 = 0
             -3(-1¹/₃n³ + 4n² - 7²/₃n + 30) = -3(0)
-3(-1¹/₃n³) - 3(4n²) - 3(-7²/₃n) - 3(30) = 0
                        4n³ - 12n² + 23n - 90 = 0
