in this question we have to observe that difference of consecutive perfect squares are in AP bcoz (x+1)2 -x2=2x+1
therefore in y 1 will occur thrice.....2 five times ,3 7 times and so on...and the last term will be added 1 less...

therefore y is the sum of the series whose nth term is (n-1)(2x-1)

therefore using summation formulas....we get...

y=x(x+1)(4x-7) 6+x
