Let Sn=Σk=14n(−1)k(k+1)2k2{\text{S}}_{\text{n}} = \mathop{Σ}_{\text{k} = 1}^{4 \text{n}} \left(- 1\right) \dfrac{\text{k} \left(\text{k} + 1\right)}{2} {\text{k}}^{2}. Then Sn can take value(s)

Options

  1. A1056
  2. B1088
  3. C1120
  4. D1332

Correct answer

A. 1056

Step-by-step solution

Given Sn=Σk=14n(−1)k(k+1)2k2{\text{S}}_{\text{n}} = \mathop{Σ}_{\text{k} = 1}^{4 \text{n}} \left(- 1\right) \dfrac{\text{k} \left(\text{k} + 1\right)}{2} {\text{k}}^{2}
=−12−22+32+42−52−62+72+82+............= - {1}^{2} - {2}^{2} + {3}^{2} + {4}^{2} {- 5}^{2} - {6}^{2} + {7}^{2} + {8}^{2} + ............
=(32−1)+(42−22)+(72−52)+(82−62)............= \left({3}^{2} - 1\right) + \left({4}^{2} - {2}^{2}\right) + \left({7}^{2} - {5}^{2}\right) + \left({8}^{2} - {6}^{2}\right) ............
=2(1+3+2+4+...+4n)= 2\left(1 + 3 + 2 + 4 + . . . + 4n\right)
=2(4n(4n+1))2=4n(4n+1)= \dfrac{2\left(4n\left(4n + 1\right)\right)}{2} = 4n\left(4n + 1\right)

Sn=1056{S}_{n} = 1056 is true for n=8n = 8

Sn=1332{S}_{n} = 1332 is true for n=9n = 9
