Verify and prove (Posted on 2017-12-10) Difficulty: 4 of 5
Consider:
      (15 + 25)     +     (17 + 27)     =   2 *(1 + 2)4   
   (15 + 25 + 35)   +   (17 + 27 + 37)   =  2 *(1 + 2 + 3)4 
(15 + 25 + 35 + 45) + (17 + 27 + 37 + 47) = 2 *(1 + 2 + 3 + 4)4
       ...                  ...       and so on     ...

First, verify that both sides are equal for further increase in n,

then prove it.
