[Basic algebra] Simplifying

Hello there!

It's been ages since I did algebra, and now I am presented with the
following term as the right-hand part of an equation:

(n+1)^2 + n*(n+1) * (2n+1) / 6

Could you guys give me some pointers (or perhaps a solution if you're
generous) on how to simplify this?

Thanks!
