I able to get the general term or $large n$th term of the series is: $$U_n=(n^2+n)2^n$$ Now i want to get $S_n$ by the method of difference.That's why I need to make $$U_n=V_r-V_r-1$$
My book is providing that $U_n=(2n^2-2n+4)2^n-[2(n-1)^2-2(n-1)+4)2^n-1]$.Now my question is how they get $U_n$ like this.Thanks in advance.

We may expect the form of $V_n$ to be $(an^2+bn+c)2^n$, since the polynomial factor of $U_n $ is in degree $2$.
Now
beginalign
V_n-V_n-1&=(an^2+bn+c)2^n-[a(n-1)^2+b(n-1)+c]2^n-1\
&=2^n-1[2an^2+2bn+2c-a(n^2-2n+1)-b(n-1)-c]\
&=2^n-1[an^2+(2b+2a-b)n+(2c-a+b-c)]\
&=2^n[frac a2 n^2+(a+frac b2)n+fracc+b-a2]
endalign
Comparing the coefficients, we get
$$a=2,b=-2,c=4$$
So $$V_n=(2n^2-2n+4)2^n$$
Thanks a lot @Mythomorphic That's the thing I really needed :)

Just rearrange to obtain
beginalign
n^2+n &= 2n^2-n^2 -2n+3n+4-4\
&= (2n^2-2n+4)-(n^2-3n+4)\
&= (2n^2-2n+4) - (n^2-2n+1-n+1+2)\
&= (2n^2-2n+4) - ((n-1)^2-(n-1)+2)\
&= (2n^2-2n+4) - frac2(n-1)^2-2(n-1)+42.
endalign
Do you see it now?

Just rearrange to obtain
beginalign
n^2+n &= 2n^2-n^2 -2n+3n+4-4\
&= (2n^2-2n+4)-(n^2-3n+4)\
&= (2n^2-2n+4) - (n^2-2n+1-n+1+2)\
&= (2n^2-2n+4) - ((n-1)^2-(n-1)+2)\
&= (2n^2-2n+4) - frac2(n-1)^2-2(n-1)+42.
endalign
