Sol. (1 to 3)
General term of the series is
50 50 + r 50 + r
C (2r − 1) C  50 − r + 1
T(r) =  50 r = 50 r 1 − 
r =1 Cr (50 + r) Cr  50 + r 
Now,
50 + r
Cr  50 − r + 1 (50 − r + 1)(50 + r)!r!(50 − r)!
  = r!50!(50 + r)50!

Cr 50 + r
50 + r −1
(50 − r + 1)!(50 + r − 1)! Cr −1
= = 50
50!50! Cr −1
50 + r 50 + r −1
Cr Cr −1
 T(r) = 50
− 50

Where V(r) = 50
Cr
Now, sum of the given series

C50 C0 100
P =  T(r) = V(50) − V(0) = 50

r =1 C50 C0
Also,

 P – Q = –1
We know that
 0, If n is odd
C02 − C12 + C22 + ...... + ( −1)n Cn2 
( −1) Cn/2, If n is even
n n

 P–R=–1
Q + R = 2100C50 = 2P + 2

4.  (1+x)n = C0 + C1x +............+ Cnxn

Multiply by x & then differentiate
(1+x)n + x. n(1+x)n–1 = C0 + 2C1x +............+ (n+1)Cnxn ..................(i)
and (x+1)n = C0xn + C1xn–1 +............+ Cn ..........(ii)
Multiply (i) & (ii) & equate the coefficient of xn on
both side
(2n) ! (2n – 1) ! (2n – 1) !
C02 + 2C12 + ........+ (n + 1) Cn2 = 2nCn + n. 2n–1Cn–1 = +n = (n + 2)
(n!)2 n!(n – 1)! n!(n – 1)!

5. (a – b)n
T5 + T6 = nC4(a)n–4(–b)4 + nC5(a)n–5(–b)5 = 0
n−4 n−4
 a+ (–b) = 0  a/b =

Now this term will be negative, if the last factor in numerator is the only negative factor.

 –r+1<0 <r

 6.4 < r  least value of r is 7.
Thus first negative term will be 8th.

No intersection
so no solution.
(B) sin x + sin2x = 1 ............(1)
1 – sin2x = sinx
cos2x = sinx
 cos4x = sin2x
cos2x + cos4x = sinx + sin2x
from (1)
x = 1.
x3 − x
(C) log10x3 – x – log10x2 + x = 0  2 = 10°
x +x
 x = 0, x – 1, + 2
x=0 
 not acceptable.
x = –1
(D) 1 + x + x2 + x3 = 0  x = – 1 is a root of the equation
