dear professor,  how did you get the generalized solution  and is it always true?

since f(x+y)=f(x)+f(y)+xy, you can  assume f(x)=ax^2 +bx+c with f(2)=5.  then you get a=(1/2), b=(3/2), c=0.

f(4)=10+4=14⇒f(8)=44  5=2f(1)+1⇒f(1)=2;f(3)=7+2=9  f(11)=44+9+24=77

$${f}\left(\mathrm{4}\right)=\mathrm{10}+\mathrm{4}=\mathrm{14}\Rightarrow{f}\left(\mathrm{8}\right)=\mathrm{44} \\ $$$$\mathrm{5}=\mathrm{2}{f}\left(\mathrm{1}\right)+\mathrm{1}\Rightarrow{f}\left(\mathrm{1}\right)=\mathrm{2};{f}\left(\mathrm{3}\right)=\mathrm{7}+\mathrm{2}=\mathrm{9} \\ $$$${f}\left(\mathrm{11}\right)=\mathrm{44}+\mathrm{9}+\mathrm{24}=\mathrm{77} \\ $$

2.  f(x+h)−f(x)=f(h)+hx  f ′(x)=((f(0))/h)+x  ⇒  f(0)=0  f(x)=(x^2 /2)+kx  as   f(2)=(2^2 /2)+2k=5    ⇒  k=(3/2)  f(x)=(x^2 /2)+((3x)/2)=((x(x+3))/2)

$$\mathrm{2}.\:\:{f}\left({x}+{h}\right)−{f}\left({x}\right)={f}\left({h}\right)+{hx} \\ $$$${f}\:'\left({x}\right)=\frac{{f}\left(\mathrm{0}\right)}{{h}}+{x} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\:{f}\left(\mathrm{0}\right)=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$${f}\left({x}\right)=\frac{{x}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{2}}+{kx} \\ $$$${as}\:\:\:{f}\left(\mathrm{2}\right)=\frac{\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{2}}+\mathrm{2}{k}=\mathrm{5}\:\:\:\:\Rightarrow\:\:{k}=\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$${f}\left({x}\right)=\frac{{x}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{2}}+\frac{\mathrm{3}{x}}{\mathrm{2}}=\frac{{x}\left({x}+\mathrm{3}\right)}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$
