  1. Given that \(\sum\limits_{k=1}^{m}{\left( {{2}^{k}}-200k \right)}>0\), show that \({{2}^{m}}-50{{m}^{2}}-50m-1>0\). Hence find the last value of \(m\).[4]
    1. Prove that \(\frac{1}{\left( r-2 \right)!}-\frac{1}{r!}=\frac{{{r}^{2}}-r-1}{r!}\).[1]
    2. Show that \(\sum\limits_{r=3}^{n}{\frac{{{r}^{2}}-r-1}{r!}}=\frac{3}{2}-\frac{n+1}{n!}\).[3]
    3. Using the result in part (ii), find \(\sum\limits_{r=6}^{10}{\frac{{{r}^{2}}-r-1}{r!}}\)in the form \(\frac{k}{10!}\) where \(k\) is an integer to be determined.[3]
