Write the sum using summation notation, assuming the suggested pattern continues.
25 + 36 + 49 + 64 + ... + n^2 + ...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

25 + 36 + 49 + 64 + ... + n^2 = +sum+%28k%5E2+%2C+k=5%2C+n+%29+.


The sum which I wrote is finite.


It can not be infinite since the infinite series is divergent.
