Solution
The correct option is D31 Given (1+x−2x2)6=1+a1x+a2x2+......+a12x12 Put x=1 in the given equation 0=1+a1+a2+a3+....+a12 ....(1) Put x=−1 in the given equation (−2)6=1−a1+a2−a3+....+a12 .....(2) Adding (1) and (2), we get 0+(−2)6=(1+a1+a2+....+a12)+(1−a1+a2−a3......+a12) 64=2(1+a2+a4+.....+a12) ∴1+a2+a4+......+a12=32 ⇒a2+a4+......+a12=31
