  Σ_(k=0) ^5   [ ((5),(k) ) (((    7)),((6−k)) )]^2 = 267 148
$$\:\:\underset{{k}=\mathrm{0}} {\overset{\mathrm{5}} {\sum}}\:\:\left[\begin{pmatrix}{\mathrm{5}}\\{{k}}\end{pmatrix}\begin{pmatrix}{\:\:\:\:\mathrm{7}}\\{\mathrm{6}−{k}}\end{pmatrix}\right]^{\mathrm{2}} =\:\mathrm{267}\:\mathrm{148} \\ $$
