Let \(n>2\) be an integer, and let \(X,Y\), \(f:X\to Y\) be vector spaces. One of the corollaries of the main result is that the functional equation below is stable in the sense of Hyers and Ulam: \[ f\biggl(\sum_{i=1}^nx_i\biggr)+(n-2)\sum_{i=1}^nf(x_i)= \sum_{1\leq i<j\leq n}f(x_i+x_j)\qquad (x_1,\ldots,x_n\in X). \] The author also gives its general solutions, concluding that the even part of \(f\) satisfies the classical quadratic equation, while the odd part of \(f\) satisfies the Cauchy functional equation. The main tool of the proofs is based on Hyers’ method.
