Problem

The first term of an arithmetic series of consecutive integers is $k^2 \plus{} 1$ (Error compiling LaTeX. Unknown error_msg). The sum of $2k \plus{} 1$ (Error compiling LaTeX. Unknown error_msg) terms of this series may be expressed as:

$\textbf{(A)}\ k^3 \plus{} (k \plus{} 1)^3\qquad \textbf{(B)}\ (k \minus{} 1)^3 \plus{} k^3\qquad \textbf{(C)}\ (k \plus{} 1)^3\qquad \\ \textbf{(D)}\ (k \plus{} 1)^2\qquad \textbf{(E)}\ (2k \plus{} 1)(k \plus{} 1)^2$ (Error compiling LaTeX. Unknown error_msg)

Solution
